TY - Type of reference TI - Describing the marine fauna of the Côte d’Azur in 1809: the study by François Péron and Charles-Alexandre Lesueur AU - Gabrielle Baglione AB - François Péron and Charles-Alexandre Lesueur, a zoologist and a naturalist draughtsman, formed a unique pair of scientists over a period of 10 years. Between 1800 and 1810, they put their work, their hypotheses and their experiments at the service of knowledge of the animal world. One of their favourite subjects was the study of marine fauna, particularly jellyfish. In 1809, in Villefranche sur Mer, in the Mediterranean, they continued the work they had been carrying out in the oceans during the voyage of discovery to the Southern Lands (1800-1804) decided by Bonaparte and led by Nicolas Baudin. Two centuries later, specialists in marine organisms continue to pay tribute to this pioneering work.
