Matsumoto Nikichi (松本仁吉; fl. c. 1892 - 1897) was a Japanese geographer, translator, and educator based in Osaka. Little is known about his life, but Matsumoto was quite active during the 1890s, authoring several school textbooks and translating maps, including a very early Japanese map of Taiwan after the island was annexed in 1895. He also published a detailed geography of the islands of Taiwan the same year (臺灣島地誌撮要附錄), indicating he was something of a Taiwan expert just as Japan took control of the territory. The following year, he prepared the New Pocket Atlas (袖珍萬國地圖), based on John Bartholomew's Pocket Atlas of the World, which Matsumoto translated into Japanese and slightly modified. He also appears to have co-authored a four volume series of commentaries on Tang Dynasty poetry the same year, reflecting a broad range of interests and talents.
