Marie-Aimée Lullin (5 April 1751 – 21 January 1822) was a Swiss entomologist: spouse and assistant to François Huber.

On 28 April 1776 she married the naturalist François Huber (1750-1831), who was blind. Together with his wife Marie-Aimée acting, as his "eyes", and a servant, François Burnens, François Huber carried out investigations that laid the foundations of a scientific knowledge of the life history of the honey bee.

One of the craters of Venus is named for her.
