If Paul Preuß (Botaniker) – Wikipedia is correct Paul Rudolph Preuß. But looks solidly researched so why not the additional name and the ß versus ss.
His death record and other documents suggest as well the additional name. From the documents I would write his last name Preuss and not Preuß.
Feel free to correct me or add any additional information about him.
Not birds:
He was West Prussian and not Poland born even if the town Toruń is today part of Poland.
