Alphonse Fleuriot de Langle (born Alphonse Jean René Fleuriot de Langle; May 16, 1809 – July 22, 1881) was a French naval officer, from Plouigneau (Finistère), who took part in the capture of Algiers in 1830 and later suppressed the African slave trade. He served in the Crimean War in 1855 and the Indian Ocean, where he led coastal explorations to establish a French naval base, supervised the settlement in Obock, and helped found the French presence at Djibouti. As head of the French fleet in the 1860s, he oversaw maritime routes in the Indian Ocean and investigated Henri Lambert's death. Retiring as a vice-admiral in 1874, he died in Paris on 22 July 1881.
