and principally in California, in 1876, with notes on their 
localities and habits. 
“Papilio”, New York, Febr. 1882, II, p. 29—31. 
NB. This List evokes in me the most delightful recollections of some of 
the beautiful captures, mentioned in it. At Webber Lake, Sierra Co., California, 
at an altitude of about 8000 feet above sea-level, I hoped to find the alpine 
genus Parnassius, which I had never met with in America before. Being ac¬ 
quainted, from my European experience, with the peculiar mode of flight of this 
beautiful butterfly, it was with intense delight that I saw one slowly approach¬ 
ing me with its “hesitating flight”. (The expression is Schiller’s: “Der zwei- 
felnde Fliigel”; I find it in H. v. Kiesenwetter’s: “Physionomik einiger Insekten”, 
Berl. Ent. Z. I, 65, 1857. Among all my entomological acquaintances Kiesen- 
wetter struck me, more than many others, as “un homme d’esprit!”)

88. Prioritat oder Continuitat? Ein dipterologischer Bcitrag. 
Wien. Ent. Zeit. I, 1882, p. 191—193. 
NB. Protest against the mischievous zeal of some pseudo-entomologists 
who push priority in nomenclature to the extreme, at the expense of continuity 
and stability. They forget that “l’exactitude est le sublime des sots”! 
89. On Professer Brauer’s paper: “Versuch einer Cliarakte- 
ristik der Gattungen der Notcicanthen ”. 
Berl. Ent. Zeitschr. 1882, p. 363—380. 
NB. This paper was the rock upon which my friendship with Brauer 
split! When, after the death of Loew (1879), Brauer began to work on the same
