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, he studied at the University of Göttingen, and gained his doctorate there. In 1870, he moved to Kiel, where he met Professor 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.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Periods of investigation )〕 The ''Phønix'' docked in Leith, and while in Edinburgh, Willemoes-Suhm met Charles Wyville Thomson, who would lead the ''Challenger'' expedition later that year.〔 Willemoes-Suhm joined the ''Challenger'' expedition at the last minute, and worked on many of the crustaceans that voyage discovered. He died on September 13, 1875, during the journey from Hawaii to Tahiti, and was buried at sea after a short illness with erysipelas.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tomb of Dr. Rudolf von Willemoes-Suhm )〕 The genus ''Willemoesia'' is named after him, as is Suhm Island in Royal Sound (Kerguelen Archipelago), which was first charted on the voyage of the ''H.M.S. Challenger''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Library of New South Wales )〕 He was awarded the Challenger Medal posthumously.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The ''Challenger'' Medal Roll (1895) )〕 ==See also==
