Paul Chabanaud (30 November 1876, Versailles – 27 February 1959) was a French ichthyologist and herpetologist. Beginning in 1915 he worked as a volunteer under zoologist Louis Roule at the ''Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle'' in Paris. In 1919–20 he undertook a scientific expedition to French West Africa (Senegal, Guinea) on behalf of the museum, during which he collected thousands of zoological specimens. Following his return to Paris, he served as a preparator in the laboratory of biologist Jean Abel Gruvel at the museum. He specialized in the anatomy and systematics of the flatfish (order Pleuronectiformes). He was the taxonomic authority of many herpetological and ichthyological species.〔 Paragraph incorporates translated text from an equivalent article at the Dutch Wikipedia, source listed as: Robert Ph.
