THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 109 
LIST OF THE WRITINGS OF THE LATE 
COLEMAN TOWNSEND ROBINSON. 
BY AUG. R. GROTE, DEMOPOLIS, ALA. 
I give here a list of those of the Entomological writings of my late 
esteemed friend, Mr. Coleman T. Robinson, that have been published 
under his sole signature. 
These recommend themselves to the attention of the student by their 
conscientious statement and adequate illustration of the different species 
they discuss. They were all written subsequent to Mr. Robinson’s return 
in 1868, from a journey to England and Continental Europe, during the 
prosecution of which a representative collection of European Lepidoptera 
was acquired, and especial attention was paid to the smaller moths. Mr, 
Robinson saw and talked with Zeller, whose researches and studies on 
the Micro-Lepidoptera have furnished the basis on which our best authors 
have founded their classifications. He could not fail to be benefitted by 
such contact, and I know he carried with him to his early grave a sweet 
recollection of the old Professor who had honored him with his good 
fatherly counsel and even affectionate consideration. Five papers, under 
the common title of Descriptions of North American Lepidoptera, and 
illustrated by 86 figures, have been already published under the joint 
authorship of Mr. Robinson and myself in the Transactions of the 
“American Entomological Society. The sixth and last paper, bringing, 
according to our original agreement, the number of illustrations to one 
hundred, and with a revisionary supplement, is in great part completed. 
The collection on which these and all our other joint entomological 
writings were based, is now in the possession of the American Entomo- 
logical Society. Sometime I hope to be able to publish this Sixth Paper, 
and bring to a conclusion our joint plan and labors. How deeply do I 
feel the loss of my clear-headed, talented friend and coadjutor !
