Jean Jacques Timothée Puel (August 22, 1813 – January 28, 1890) was a French physician and botanist.[1]
A practicing physician in Paris, he was a founding member of the Société botanique de France (1854).[2]
He is known for his investigations of flora native to the département of Lot, of which he published Catalogue des plantes qui croissent dans le département du Lot. Also, he issued an exsiccata series called Herbier du Lot.[3][4] and a second one, Plantes de France, with Alphonse Maille.[5] The genus Puelia (family Gramineae) was named in his honor by Adrien René Franchet.[6]
