Marie Jules César Lelorgne de Savigny (; 5 April 1777 – 5 October 1851) was a French zoologist. Savigny was born at Provins. In 1798 he travelled to Egypt with the Emperor Napoleon as part of the French scientific expedition to that country, and contributed to the publication of the findings of the expedition in 1809 (''Description de l'Égypte''; published more fully in 1822).

Education and travel to Egypt At age 16, Savigny traveled from his home of Provins, in the department of Seine et Marne, to Paris to finish his studies.

Cuvier suggested to Napoleon that the 21-year-old Savigny should follow him as zoologist to Egypt. Savigny became responsible ...
