Dr Thomas Horsfield (1773–1859) was an American naturalist. He studied medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, but became an explorer and prolific collector of plants and animals. He began his career in Java while it was under Dutch rule, but when Napoleon Bonaparte annexed Holland the British East India Company was able to take control (1811). Horsfield's poor health made him seek other employment (1819) and he was moved by the company to continue his research under their direction in London, as Curator and then Keeper of the India House Museum. Whilst in Java he became a good friend of Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles (q.v.). He wrote Zoological Researches in Java and the 266 Horsbrugh, C. B. – Hose Neighbouring Islands (1824). Five mammals and three reptiles are named after him.

P.S. Did not yet find (may take some time):
syn. Cincloramphus mathewsi
syn. Icthyophaga ichthyaetus
syn. Lophura lathami
syn. Nisaetus cirrhatus limnaeetus
syn. Oriolus chinensis
syn. Tringa nebularia
syn. Tringa stagnatilis

I am just wondering if his full name was Thomas Walker Horsfield as in German Wikipedia Thomas Walker Horsfield – Wikipedia or if this guy The History, Antiquities, and Topography of the County of Sussex is someone different?

This name has been cited in the synonymy of both stagnatilis and nebularia (e.g., Cat. Bds Brit. Mus).
