CURATORS HI P. 



Since our note ot pa^e i66 was written the American Entomological 

 Society has established a salaried Curatorship, and has elected Mr. S. 

 Frank Aaron to that position. 



This Society is now, and is likely to continue to be, in a condition 

 to care for all bequests and loans of books and material. Collectors 

 can make no better disposal of their duplicate material and extra type 

 specimens than to forward them to the Society, Nineteenth and Race 

 Streets, Philadelphia. 



As we go to press, we are pained to hear of the cieath ol Mr. Her- 

 bert K. Morrison, of Morganton, North Carolina. None of the par- 

 ticulars of what must have been a sudden death have reached us. 



Mr. Morrison has long been known as an energetic and panistaking 

 collector, and a student of no mean ability in the Heterocera. For 

 the past ten years he has taken extensive trips into unexplored regions: 

 principally along either side of the Rocky Mountains, during which 

 he has done more to advance our knowledge of geographical range, 

 and local variation, and to unearth new species than any collector of 

 his dav.
