Jacques Désiré Leandri, born 1903 in Corsica, died 1982, was a French botanist and mycologist.

Leandri is remembered for botanical excursions in North Africa (Morocco) and Madagascar. He collected plants for scientific study from the years 1922 to 1980.[1] The plant genus Leandriella from the family Acanthaceae is named after him.[2] As a taxonomist, he circumscribed many plants within the family Euphorbiaceae.[3]
