César Auguste Récluz
César Auguste Récluz was a French malacologist.
He worked as a pharmacist in Vaugirard; as an amateur malacologist, he specialized in the family Neritidae, of which he described approximately 200 species. Much of his conchology collection was acquired by Jules [Paul Benjamin Delessert].
In 1853 Sauveur Abel [Aubert Petit de la Saussaye] named the sea snail genus Recluzia in his honour. He also has several species named after him; examples being Conus recluzianus, Polinices reclusianus, ''Paramya recluzi, and Glossaulax reclusiana.''
