François Richard de Tussac aka Chevalier de Tussac (1751 Poitou – 1837), was a French botanist and naturalist from a wealthy family with colonial holdings, and is noted for his four-volume Flore des Antilles, ou Histoire générale botanique, rurale et économique des végétaux indigènes des Antilles, published in Paris by F. Schoell et Hautel, and one of the earliest floras of the West Indies. He became senator for Guadeloupe in the Antilles and traveled widely through St. Domingue, Jamaica and Cuba. In his book Cri des Colons (Cry of the Colonies) he opposed giving Blacks more legal rights.
