Glenn Stuart Hunt was an Australian arachnologist who worked on harvestmen and acari.

"Glenn's research achievements have been substantial and he leaves an enduring scientific legacy to workers in the field of Australian arachnology. He enjoyed his research in much the same way that he enjoyed his caving, not only for the doing of it but also for the companionship and stimulus of discussion, whether at conferences, less formal gatherings like 'Coopers and Cladistics', or simply with his colleagues at work." [1].

Notable contributions[]

Hunt published reviews of some Australian genera of Triaenonychidae, did also work on Eupnoi, describing the Ballarrinae.
