Biography
French botanist who worked primarily in the Toulouse region. Most of the taxa he described were based on minor local differences and were subsequently reduced to infraspecific rank by subsequent authorities. Material at BM includes types and was mostly purchased (1921) with the herbarium of é.J.A. Gadeceau (1845-1928). The original herbarium of Timbal-Lagrave at TL, and exchange material derived from it, includes specimens collected by his son, Albert Timbal-Lagrave.
