fl. 1513–22) was a
Swiss mercenary captain. Having arrived late to the
Battle of Novara, he abandoned the Swiss army before the
Battle of Marignano. In 1522, he was the chief of the Swiss captains in the service of
Odet de Foix, Vicomte de Lautrec, and was killed commanding one of the Swiss columns at the
Battle of Bicocca.
