Alphonse Trémeau de Rochebrune was a French botanist, malacologist and a zoologist. He was born September 18, 1836〔L'année 1834 est souvent donnée dans la littérature, nous suivons ici Jaussaud et Brygoo (2004) : 453 et Adler (2007) : 106.〕 in Saint-Savin, and died on April 23, 1912 in Paris. ==Biography== The son of a curator of the Museum of Angoulême, he became a military surgeon and reached the rank of adjutant in 1870. After obtaining his doctorate in 1874, he travelled to Saint-Louis in Senegal. In 1878, he joined the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle as an assistant in the Laboratory of Anthropology, and then replaced Victor Bertin (1849–1880), as assistant naturalist in the Laboratory of molluscs, worms and zoophytes, after Bertin's death. He held this post until his retirement in 1911. He addressed, in one hundred to fifty publications, a variety of subjects: from geology to paleontology, botany to malacology . These include his catalogue of flowering plants which grow wild in the Department of Charente (1860), co-written with Savatier Alexander (1824–1886).〔https://openlibrary.org/works/OL13788421W/Catalogue_raisonné_des_plantes_phanérogames_qui_croissent_spontanément_dans_le_département_de_la_Cha〕 From 1882–1883, Rochebrune took part in a scientific expedition to the Southern Ocean and Cape Horn, with the malacologist Jules François Mabille, during which they collected, and later described many new species of molluscs. In 1889, Rochebrune published reports on his extensive research. Much of Rochebrune's subsequent research was on the growth of shellfish.〔http://www.fondomarmagallanes.cl/r-magallanes.html Expédition scientifique française au Cap Horn〕 Rochebrune was also the discoverer of a lamp from the Paleolithic era, in the caves of La Chaire a Calvin, in Charente.〔Viré, A., 1934: Les Lampes du Quaternaire moyen et leur bibliographie, Bulletin de la Société préhistorique française, 1934, tome 31, N. 11. pp. 517-520.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alphonse Trémeau de Rochebrune」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
