discal spots showing through. This, apparently, is a rare variety 

 and worthy of name, it is so entirely different from the common 

 catenaria.

THE MONTREAL BRANCH OF THE ENTOMOLOGICAL 



SOCIETY OF ONTARIO. 



The following Resolution was unanimously passed at a meeting 

 of the Montreal Branch and copies have been forwarded by the 

 Secretary to the relatives of the late Henry H. Lyman. 



Resolved: — "That the members of the Montreal Branch of the 

 Entomological Society of Ontario have learned with great sorrow, 

 that when the 'S. S. Empress of Ireland' sank on the 29th day of 

 May, she had on board one of our oldest and most active members, 

 Mr. Henry Herbert Lyman, accompanied by Mrs. Lyman, and 

 that both are amongst those who are lost. 



From the time that Mr. Lyman joined our Society in 1875 up 

 to the Annual Meeting held last month, in his successive capacities 

 as a Member of the Council, President, Vice-President and Treas- 

 urer, he has been so intimately connected with the work we have 

 been able to accomplish that it is difficult to realize and express 

 the extent of the loss we have sustained. 



His wide knowledge of the butterflies, both in nature and in 

 literature, his extensive travels to the great museums of this 

 Continent and of Europe, his friendly help and criticism, and 

 frequent hospitality at his late residence 'Thornhill' where so 

 many enjoyable meetings have been held, will long be gratefully 

 remembered; as well as the encouragement in the study of Nature 

 produced by his numerous papers published in the various scien- 

 tific periodicals, which papers he invariably read first at our 

 gatherings. 



We beg to extend to the members of his family the expression 

 of our sympathy in their double bereavement, and assure them 

 that the feeling of loss is not confined to this City, but is shared 

 by Entomologists throughout America and beyond the seas." 



Geo. A. Moore, Secretary.
