 taken by Mr. Grossbeck. Aside from these five examples the 

 species is known only by the unique type described by Mr.

 was spun in the neck of a bottle, completely corking up the 

 mouth and projecting about three-eighths of an inch over the 

 top.

ALEXANDER CRAW. 



The following resolutions on the death of Alexander Craw, 

 were presented by the Executive Committee and unanimously 

 adopted by the Hawaii Entomological Society. 



Whereas, The Hawaiian Entomological Society has learned 

 with profound sorrow of the death of its esteemed member, 

 Alexander Craw, June 28, 1908, be it therefore 



Resolved, That the Society, through its Secretary, transmit 

 to the bereaved family its deepest sympathy, and this expres- 

 sion of its appreciation of the irreparable loss sustained. Mr. 

 Craw was one of the founders of the Society; was its first 

 Vice-President and always took a keen interest in the Society, 

 attending the meetings faithfully unless prevented by matters 

 of health or duty and was ever ready to join in the discussions 

 of practical entomological interest. He was a sincere, kind, 

 generous, and hospitable man, and in the few years spent in 

 our midst had endeared himself into the hearts of all with 

 whom he was associated. 



Be it further Resolved, That these resolutions be spread on 

 the minutes of the Society. 



An interesting biographical sketch of Alexander Craw was 

 published by Jacob Kotinsky in the Proc. Haw. Ent. Soc., II, 

 No. i, Oct., 1908.
