Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Rudolf von Willemoes-Suhm (September 11, 1847 September 13, 1875) was a German naturalist who served aboard the Challenger expedition. Willemoes-Suhm was born in Glückstadt, Schleswig-Holstein. After starting to study law at the University of Bonn, Willemoes-Suhm left Bonn to study zoology at Munich under Professor Karl von Siebold. Beginning in April 1869, Willemoes-Suhm studied at the University of Göttingen, and gained his doctorate there. In 1870, he moved to Kiel, where he met Profesor Karl von Kupffer, and there he collected specimens in the Bay of Kiel, which he analysed for his habilitation. In 1871, Willemoes-Suhm began to lecture at the University of Munich. In 1872, he was on board the Phønix with the Danish Faeroer Expedition, and described the vertebrates and polychaetes of the Faroe Islands. The Phønix docked in Leith, and while in Edinburgh, Willemoes-Suhm met Charles Wyville Thomson, who would lead the Challenger expedition later that year.
