Jesuit zoologist, born Fougeres, France, 1836; died Zi-ka-wei, China, 1902. Going to the Far East mission in 1868, he seized the opportunities offered by his pastoral wanderings to continue his scientific studies. His writings on the land molluscs of China are the standard authority. He was one of the chief contributors to the Jesuit review of oriental natural history, and specialized in the systematic and geographical propagation of east Asiatic mammals, and comparative morphology of classes and groups according to tooth formation and skeleton.
