206 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



5. Riley — "Directions for Collecting and Preserving Insects" 

 ('Bulletin of the United States National Museum,' No. 39, 

 Part F, 1892). This profusely illustrated work of nearly one 

 hundred and fifty pages can be obtained on application to the 

 Secretary of the Smithsonian Institute, Washington, D. C. I 

 believe that applications from bona fide workers are not refused. 



6. A label list, based on Mr. Saunders's work, is obtainable 

 from Mr. T. M. McGregor, of Perth.
