Charles Alexandre Lesueur
Charles Alexandre Lesueur (1 January 1778 in Le Havre – 12 December 1846 in Le Havre) was a French naturalist, artist, and explorer. He was a prolific natural-history collector, gathering many type specimens in Australia, Southeast Asia, and North America, and was also responsible for describing numerous species, including the spiny softshell turtle (''Apalone spinifera''), smooth softshell turtle (''A. mutica''), and common map turtle (''Graptemys geographica''). Both Mount Lesueur and Lesueur National Park in Western Australia are named in his honor. Provided by Wikipedia-
