The Key to Scientific Names
Charles René Augustin Léclancher (1804-1857) French surgeon-naturalist, explorer (syn. Dicaeum celebicum, Passerina, Ramphiculus).

Death Record (Cote 3E 129/169) here p. 68/292 confirms Wikipedia.
Charles René Augustin Léclancher est un chirurgien de marine, né le 29 mars 1804 à Alexandrie (Piémont) et mort le 7 avril 1857 à Cherbourg

As well here his record in Léonore. So nothing new. All just confirms what was claimed.
