johann jakob von tschudi

Johann Jakob von Tschudi (July 25, 1818 - October 8, 1889) was a Swiss naturalist and explorer. Tschudi was born in Glarus, and studied natural sciences and medicine at the universities of Neuchtel, Leiden and Paris. In 1838 he travelled to Peru, where he remained for five years exploring and collecting plants in the Andes. Between 1857 and 1859 he visited Brazil and other countries in South America. In 1860 he was appointed Swiss ambassador to Brazil, remaining so until 1868, and again spent time exploring the country and collecting plants for the museums of Neuchtel, Glarus, and Freiburg.
