b. 21 Oct 1838 in Langres, Haute-Marne : here (cote 1 E 269/87), 275/483.
d. 09 Sep 1901 in Saint-Cyr-au-Mont-d’Or, Rhône : here (cote 4E12054), 9/15.

In both, he is just called Félix. (I assume that "Marie" must have been added at the time of his ordination, and had currency only within the Church.)

In his death record, he is described as "évèque titulaire de Diana, vicaire apostolique du Thibet" = Titular Bishop of Diana (= Zana), Apostolic Vicar of Tibet.

It might make sense to update The Key to Scientific Names - Birds of the World as well with the additional name?
