THE INSECTS OF NEW JERSEY. 845 



Osburn, Raymond C., New York City. Professor in Columbia University. 

 Dipterist, especially interested in "Syrphidas," in which his records 

 add important information. 



Pears. Pearsall, R. F., Brooklyn. Lepidopterist, specializing in "Geome- 

 tridse," in which family most of his records will be found. 



Peck, George W., late of Roselle. General collector, but his records 

 largely confined to "Lepidoptera" and "Hemiptera." 



Pergande, Theo. W., Washington, D. C. Assistant in the division of Ento- 

 mology, U. S. Dept. Agric. Specializes in "Thysanoptera" and "Aphi- 

 didae," and has furnished much of the information in the lists of these 

 series. 



Pm. Palm, Charles, New York City. A collector of "Coleoptera" and 

 "Lepidoptera" who has spent much time in the region about Lake 

 Hopatcong, with which locality his name is most generally associated 

 in this list. 



Pr. Paulmier, Dr. Fred C., late of Madison, New Jersey. Collected 

 "Coleoptera" and "Hemiptera," his -records in this latter order being 

 of especial value. 



Rehn, James A. G., Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia. Special 

 student in "Orthoptera." Has collected largely in South Jersey, has 

 named much of the material recently collected in the State and has 

 prepared the mss. for the present list in his specialty. 



Reinick, William R., Philadelphia, at one time much interested in "Coleop- 

 tera." Many of Mr. Reineck's records came to me from Mr. Johnson, 

 but he has also sent me a very good list of "Staphylinidse" from 

 specimens determined for him by Mr. E. A. Schwarz. 



R. Rhoads, Samuel N., Philadelphia. A Zoologist with a special interest 

 for insects, particularly dragon flies. In 1899 he made a bicycle 

 journey through South Jersey during the latter part of the season 

 and captured a considerable lot of "Odonata," which Dr. Calvert 

 determined. 



Riederer, L. A collector of Dragon flies, whose records are cited by Dr. 

 Calvert. 



Riley, Dr. C. V., also C. V. R., late of Washington, D. C. All records are 

 from published data and mostly relate to early stages or food-plants. 



Rk. Reinick, Wm. R.,-q. v. 



Rob. Roberts, Chris. H., New York City. A Coleopterist who specializes 

 in aquatic forms, and who has collected at various points in New 

 Jersey. He has been good enough to work over, critically, the list 

 of water beetles and has added greatly to the accuracy of the records 

 in these families. 



Say, Thomas. One of the fathers of American Entomology. All records 



credited to him are from his published writings. 

 Sb. Seib, Simon, late of Jersey City. Lepidopterist who has bred many 



species, making notes of dates and food plants. I have looked over 



his collection of moths and determined most of the smaller species. 



Mr. Seib's chief collecting grounds have been the environs of Jersey 



City Heights, Newark and the Oranges.
