Jean Jacques Timothée Puel (August 22, 1813 – January 28, 1890) was a French physician and botanist.[1]

A practicing physician in Paris, he was a founding member of the Société botanique de France (1854).[2]

He is known for his investigations of flora native to the département of Lot, of which he published Catalogue des plantes qui croissent dans le département du Lot. Also, he issued a series of exsiccatae called Herbier du Lot.[3] The genus Puelia (family Gramineae) was named in his honor by Adrien René Franchet.[4]
