Ange Paulin Terver

Ange Paulin Terver (4 October 1798, Lyon – 15 August 1875, Fontaines-sur-Saône) was a French malacologist.

He was a member of the Société linnéenne de Lyon, serving as curator of its zoological collections from 1849 to 1872. In 1853, he became a member of the Société d'agriculture de Lyon, and from 1853 to 1868, he served as secretary of the Commission des soies.

His collection of terrestrials and freshwater snails was purchased by the city of Marseille (Musée de Marseille), and his family donated his collection of 14000 coquilles to the Muséum de Lyon.
