'''Lucien Chopard''' (Paris, 31 August 1885 – 16 November 1971) was a French [[entomologist]].<br />
<br />
He graduated as a Doctor of Science in 1920 at the [[Faculté des sciences de Paris]] with a thesis entitled ''Recherches sur la conformation et le développement des derniers segments abdominaux chez les orthoptères''. After being named a correspondent of the [[Muséum national d'histoire naturelle]] in 1919 he entered that institution in 1931 working in the ''laboratoire d’entomologie'' where he was in charge of the [[vivarium]]. He became ''sous directeur'' in 1936, then professor in 1951. He retired in 1955.<br />
<br />
Chopard was a specialist in [[Orthoptera]]. He worked on [[Mantidae]] collected by [[Charles A. Alluaud]] and [[René Jeannel|René Gabriel Jeannel]] on their East Africa expedition (1911–1912).<br />
<br />
He became a Member of the [[Société entomologique de France]] in 1901 and was distinguished by being made ''secrétaire général honoraire'' in 1950. He translated into French the work of [[Vincent Brian Wigglesworth]], ''Physiologie des insectes'' (Dunond, Paris, 1959). In 1931 he was made president of the [[Société zoologique de France]].<br />
