[edit]

So far I am just filling in a red link but LeSauvage was one of a number of naturalists exploring the rich and important fossil sites of the Caen region. He is the author of at least one taxon.I think I have the right LeSauvage when I say he was a significant medical figure (work on albinism, syphilis etc) but won't add this until I am sure (few days). Also am making enquiries in France re palaeontology. In my experience stubs work and many start this short. Bear with me Best regards Robert aka Notafly (talk) 20:11, 8 August 2016 (UTC) PS If not too much more can be found (for which i need his dates) i could expand Calcaires de Caen and include him with his contemporaies) Or put him in Wikispecies[reply]

I decided for the moment to put the LeSauvage info under Thamnasteria. Notafly (talk) 18:40, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have tried finding info on Lesauvage but very little - maybe somebody with a knowledge of French will do better. The M. seems to be just Monsieur so we do not have even his full name. Shyamal (talk) 08:53, 26 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I have found via Gallica that he is "Edme Lesauvage". The French sources to look for are below. Shyamal (talk) 09:08, 26 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
