Félicien Chapuis (29 April 1824 – 30 September 1879) was a Belgian doctor and entomologist. He specialised in Coleoptera and finished the text of Genera des coléoptères by Théodore Lacordaire (1801—1870) when Lacordaire died.
Chapuis was born in Verviers, the son of a doctor. He studied medicine in Bonn and at the University of Liège. He received a science degree in 1848 and a medical degree from Paris in 1852.
