Entomologist. 
The principal scientific work was done for the monograph of 
the early stages of the Odonata. By numerous additions, and 
generous help here and abroad, the material is now so enlarged 
that the first part (which is ready for publication), the Gom- 
phina, is many times richer than the monograph published ten 
years ago. 
The Lamellicornia of the general collection have been re- 
arranged, and fill three cabinets.
