Finally, when it is remembered that the genera of the Syntomidse 

 were heretofore in almost inextricable confusion, the great value of this 

 publication to working entomologists may be appreciated. The under- 

 taking of a series of monographs of the families of the Lepidoptera of the 

 world, by a competent author, is one of the most important aids to ento- 

 mology that has ever been produced, and it is entirely fitting that these 

 should emanate from the British Museum. Harrison G. Dyar. 



Mr. Arthur Gibson, who has been for three years Secretary and is 

 now President of the Toronto branch and a Director of the Entomo- 

 logical Society of Ontario, has recently been appointed assistant to Dr. 

 James Fletcher, Entomologist and Botanist of the Experimental Farms 

 cf the Dominion. 



It is with much regret that we record the death of Edward Winslow 

 Cross, youngest son of Judge and Mrs. David Cross, which took place at 

 his home in Manchester, N. H., on the 23rd of April. He was a young 

 man of great promise, being only in his 24th year, and was studying law 

 with earnest application at the Harvard Law School up to a fortnight 

 before his death. Two years ago he graduated from Amherst College, 

 Mass. He was an ardent entomologist and had formed a remarkably 

 fine collection of Geometridae. To his parents and family we beg to 

 offer our respectful sympatliy. 



Mailed June 2nd, 1899.
