Alexandre Joseph Émile Brumpt (10 March 1877, in Paris – 8 July 1951) was a French parasitologist.

[1] He studied zoology and parasitology in Paris, obtaining his degree in science in 1901, and his medical doctorate in 1906.

[2][3] He also conducted important research involving the African tsetse fly (Glossina palpalis) as a biological vector for trypanosomiasis.

However, because there are no morphological differences between the two species, his proposal was largely ignored for over 50 years before being proven correct using molecular techniques.

Also, a genus of phlebotomine sand flies, Brumptomyia, and a species of Corsican mosquito, Culex brumpti, are named after him.
