Jules René Bourguignat
Jules René Bourguignat (born August 19, 1829 in Brienne-Napoléon , † April 7, 1892 in Vendeuvre-sur-Barse ) was a French malacologist .
He was general secretary of the Société malacologique de France, which he founded in 1884 with eleven other malacologists and he was the editor of several journals there.
Bourguignat wrote numerous articles and monographs. He was the representative of a new school of malacologists who, due to small differences, described numerous new species that did not always exist. He mostly treated land snails in different regions of France, but also, for example, in Algeria.
