Testimonials from Lepidopterists. 
CHARLES OBERTHUR, Rennes.—Zt. Lep. Comp. Fase. XI., portrait: . .— | 
Peu d’explorateurs ont déployé une telle ardeur si persévérante. L’amour de la belle 
Italie, le désir de faire progresser la connaissance de la Faune italienne des Lépidoptéres 
sont l’aliment du feu sacré qui enflamme la famille Querci. 
G. T. BETHUNE-BAKER, Edgbaston.—The specimens that Signor Querci has | 
sent me have all been in first-class condition with exact data, and they show the assiduity 
and keenness of that able entomologist as also of his wife and daughter. 
ERNEST J. 0. HARTERT, director of the Rothschild Museum at Tring.—I here- 
with testify with pleasure that a number of Lepidoptera we have received in 1917, from 
Miss Erilda Querci were in excellent condition and the price moderate. 
H. J. TURNER, London.—I was perfectly satisfied with the specimens of Lepi- | 
doptera I have had from you They were in excellent condition, labelled adequately, 
and sent with the greatest of care. The selection was just what one would wish as a 
sample of the butterfly fauna of Central Italy. 
FRANK E. LOWE, Guernsey.—I have great pleasure in saying that I have had 
four lots of Lepidoptera collected by the Querci family ; I have been much pleased with } 
the perfect condition of the specimens, the excellent system of labelling and the skill and 
care employed in packing. The price is very greatly below anything I have been asked | 
or paid in dealing with other collectors. 
G.G. GRANVILLE BUCKLEY, Bury.—I beg to thank you for the series of Italian 
Rhopalocera. Iam extremely pleased with them. I should also love to express my 
appreciation of their condition and the admirable way in which they are sent out.
