Venceslas Victor Jacquemont (8 August 1801 – 7 December 1832) was a French botanist and geologist known for his travels in India.
After being invited by the Jardin des Plantes to collect plant and animal specimens from a country of his choice for 240 pounds a year, Jacquemont traveled to India in August 1828 and left Brest. He arrived in Calcutta on May 5, 1829. He went to Delhi on March 5, 1830 and traveled further to the western Himalayas. He visited Amber in Rajputana, met the Sikh Emperor Ranjit Singh in his capital Lahore and visited the Himalayan kingdom of Ladakh. He also visited Bardhaman (Burdwan) in Bengal in November 1829. In March 1831, he visited Lahore during the reign of Ranjit Singh of the Sikh Empire and met the ruler.
He died of cholera in Bombay on December 7, 1832.
Several plants have been named after Jacquemont, including Vachellia jacquemontii, the Himalayan white birch (Betula jacquemontii), the Indian tree hazel (Corylus jacquemontii), the Afghan cherry (Prunus jacquemontii) and the cobra lily (Arisaema jacquemontii).
