chosen school collections were given by her to educational institu- 

 tions and public schools. In the course of her travels she frequently 

 obtained new or rare specimens which she shared with cordial pleas- 

 ure with those students to whom they were of special interest. Her 

 last contribution of this kind was the Sonorella Wolcottiana from 

 Palm Springs, in the desert region of southeastern California. Phil- 

 anthropic work also claimed much of her attention, to which she 

 brought a mind clear and sensible, broadened by experience of many 

 years at home and in distant countries. Mrs. Wolcott was the 

 daugher of Joseph and Eleanor Eustis, of Boston, and the widow of 

 the late John W. Wolcott. She leaves a son and two daughters, be- 

 sides many, not bound by ties of relationship, yet who will remember 

 her as a friend, benefactor, or co-laborer W. H. D.

SCHISMOPE IUMULOIDES (Cpr.) at San Diego. This species was 

 described by Carpenter as a Scissure/la, from Mazathm. In examin- 

 ing some specimens sent some years ago as " Vanikorol " by Henry 

 Hemphill, I found that they were the species named above. I do 

 not know that this genus has been reported from California hitherto.
