Frederick Debell Bennett was a ship surgeon, a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons and biologist. In 1833-1836 he sailed on a whaling cruise on board the Tuscan round the globe and especially to the Pacific region. The task of this journey was to study whales, lands and nature. He described several species, for example Whalesucker (Remora australis), blue noddy and Cheilopogon nigricans.[citation needed]
