ture, Cape Town; Mr. ALEXANDER GREENSHIELDS, of 38, 
Blenheim Gardens, Willesden, N.W.; and Mr. Otiver J. 
Janson, of Cestria, Claremont Road, Highgate, N., were 
elected Fellows, and Mr. Joun W. Downine, of 45, Trevelyan 
Road, Tooting Graveney, 8S.W., was re-elected a Fellow of the 
Society. 
Announcements. 
The PresIDENT announced, with deep regret, the deaths of 
Mr. Osbert Salvin, F.R.S., a Member of the Council, and of 
Dr. E. Candéze, a Fellow of the Society, which had taken 
place since the previous meeting. 
The President also announced that the late Mrs. Stainton 
had bequeathed to the Society such entomological works from 
her husband’s library as were not already in its possession. 
This bequest was of great importance, and would add to the 
Library a large number of works, many of which, formerly 
in the library of J. F. Stephens, were old and now scarce. 
Among the more important additions were copies of Clerck’s 
“Teones insectorum rariorum,” Say’s ‘American Entomo- 
logy’ (1817)—a work of extreme rarity, Goeze’s ‘“‘ Entomo- 
logische Beytriige ”—complete, ‘“ Der Naturforscher ””— 
complete, Linneus’s ‘Systema Nature,” ed. x., Godart 
and Duponchel’s “ Lépidoptéres de France,” Harris’s “The 
Aurelian,” ed. i., Donovan’s “Insects of New Holland,” and 
Sepp’s “‘ Nederlandsche Insecten.” There were also numerous 
modern works dealing with the lepidopterous fauna of Europe. 
The number of bound volumes selected for the Society 
amounted to about 500, and there were in addition a large 
number of pamphlets, “‘separata’”’ and works in unbound 
parts. There was also the beautiful series of original draw- 
ings by C. M. Curtis and Westwood for Stephens’s “ Il ustra- 
tions of British Entomology.” 
Exhibitions. 
Mr. J. J. Watker exhibited a black form of Clytus 
mysticus, L. (var. hieroglyphicus), taken by Mr. Newstead at 
Chester, where about one per cent. of the specimens were of 
that variety; also a black variety of Letopus nebulosus, L., 
from the New Forest.
