Richard Paget Murray (1842, Isle of Man – 1908, Shapwick, Dorset, Dorset) was an English clergyman, botanist and lepidopterist.
After secondary education at King William's College, he matriculated in 1864 at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. There he graduated with a B.A. in 1868 and an M.A. in 1871. He was ordained a deacon in 1868 and a priest in 1869.
His herbarium contained plants from Ireland, the Canary Islands, Mauritius, Portugal, France, the Alps and the Dolomites. With Edward Francis Linton, William Richardson Linton and William Moyle Rogers he issued the exsiccata series British Rubi, in dried specimens. Specimens dispersed after his death are held by several institutions including the Natural History Museum (London) and Kew Gardens.
He was elected a Fellow of the Linnean Society in 1882.
