Guillaume Rondelet (1507-1566), known also as Rondeletius, was professor of medicine at the University of Montpellier in southern France. Famed as a teacher, Rondelet was also the author of a book "Libri de Piscibus Marinis" on the natural history of fishes.

He may have been the model for Dr. Rondibilis in the "Tiers livre" of François Rabelais.He also taught the famous Nostradamus.

A genus of fish, and a plant genus are both named "Rondeletia" after Rondelet.
