{{about|Elizabeth Frances Coxen (née Isaac)|her sister-in-law and illustrator Elizabeth Gould (nee Coxen)|Elizabeth Gould (illustrator)}}Elizabeth Frances Coxen née Isaac (1825–1906) was an Australian naturalist and meteorologist. Born in Gloucestershire, England, she emigrated to with her family to Sydney, Australia in 1839.[1][2] She was a collector of shells, insects and birds, as was her husband, Charles Coxen, and they donated many specimens to the Queensland Museum, where Elizabeth worked as curator.[3] After her husband's death she became the first female elected a member of the Royal Society of Queensland.[4]

She died in Brisbane on 11 August 1906[5][6] and was buried with her husband in the cemetery of Christ Church in Tingalpa. Her friends commissioned a plaque commemorating her at St John the Baptist Anglican Church at Bulimba.[7] She is commemorated in the name of the land snail Spurlingia coxenae (now known as Spurlingia dunkiensis).[1]
