Stanko Karaman (8 December 1889 – 17 May 1959) was a Macedonian biologist of Bosnian Serb ancestry, researcher on amphipod and isopod crustaceans.
In 1926 he founded the Macedonian Museum of Natural History in Skopje and in 1928, the Zoological Garden of Skopje.
Several species are named after him, for example Delamarella karamani Petkovski, 1957 (Harpacticoida), Stygophalangium karamani Oudemans, 1933 (Arachnida), or Macedonethes stankoi I. Karaman, 2003 (Isopoda).
Other taxa named karamani are labeled after his son Gordan S. Karaman, also a carcinologist.
