(重定向自Daudin)
François Marie Daudin (29 August 1776 in Paris – 30 November 1803 in Paris) was a French zoologist.
With legs paralyzed by childhood disease, he studied of physics and natural history, but ended up being devoted to the latter.
Daudin wrote Traité élémentaire et complet d'Ornithologie (Complete and Elementary Treatise of Ornithology) in 1799–1800. It was one of the first modern handbooks of ornithology, combining Linnean binomial nomenclature with the anatomical and physiological descriptions of Buffon. While an excellent beginning, it was never completed.
