data given above. Through Prof. Needham also, years 

 ago, Dr. Westcott placed the Odonata which he collected on 

 a trip to Tabasco and Chiapas, Mexico, at the service of the 

 Editor for incorporation of the data accompanying them in 

 the Biologia Centrali- Americana. 



While Dr. Westcott apparently published no extensive 

 papers on entomology, he contributed the following notes to

Dr. C. G. Hewitt. 



The daily papers announced the death of Dr. Charles 

 Gordon Hewitt, dominion entomologist and consulting zoolo- 

 gist, at Ottawa, on IVIarch i, 1920. He was born in Scotland 

 thirty-five years ago and came to Canada in 1909. Previous 

 to and after his settlement on this side of the Atlantic, he 

 published several notable works on "the house-fly. In 1913 

 he was elected a fellow of the Entomological Society of Amer- 

 ica, in whose meetings he took an interested part. As ento- 

 mologist and zoologist he was very active in Canada and he 

 will be greatly missed there, as well as on this side of the inter- 

 national line, where we deplore his early death. Detailed 

 biographical notices will doubtless appear in the Canadian 

 journals.
