Bernhard Rawitz (23 August 1857, Ostrowo - 28 December 1932) was a German military physician, anatomist and zoologist. He studied medicine at Kaiser Wilhlem Akademie in Berlin, afterwards serving as a military doctor in Metz (1880–83). He later worked at the zoological stations in Naples (1887–88, 1890) and Rovigno (1892-1898). In the late 19th century he journeyed to northern Norway (Tromsø, Sørvær, Trollfjord, Bear Island), where he performed studies of cetaceans.
