BlBI^IOGRAPHY. 



As mentioned above, a list of Haliday's writings up to 1862 

 may be found in Hagen's Bibliotheca Entomologka, lycipzig, 

 1862 (pp. 334-6, 379) This list contains forty-two titles, and 

 gives a record of the bulk of the great entomologist's work in 

 a form most convenient for reference by his followers of 

 to-day. It may be worth noting that there is a copy of Hagen's 

 book in the Natural History Library of the Dublin Museum. 



The following titles, mostly compiled from the Royal 

 Society's Catalogue, are given as a supplement to the list in 

 the Bibliotheca Eiitoniologica : — 



Characters and synoptical tables of the order (vol. i., pp. 1-9), of the 

 Bmpidse, (vdI. i., pp. 85-88), and of the Syrphidae (vol. i., pp. 234-7), 

 and the chapters on the Dolichopidae (vol. i., pp. 144-221), the 

 Borborides (vol. ii., pp. 171-184), and the Hydromyzides (vol. ii., 

 pp. 247-269) ; also the Addenda and Corrigenda (vol. iii., pp. xi.-xvi.)

This article is the first of a proposed series on the old-time 

 naturalists of Ireland. We hope that in conjunction with the 

 obituary notices of those who have passed from us in recent 

 years this series will form a fairly complete record of the lives 

 and works of the men who have contributed to natural history 

 studies in Ireland.
