AUTOBIOGRAPHIES OF ENTOMOLOGISTS AND 

 ARACHNOLOGISTS WANTED. 



For years I have been collecting materials for a Biographic Entomo- 

 logical Dictionary, to contain biographies of entomologists and arach- 

 nologists of all times and of all countries. Biographies of deceased 

 entomologists and arachnologists I have already obtained from the 

 literature almost completely, but to get biographies of living colleagues 

 is much more difficult. 



Accordingly autobiographies are wanted, and I hereby beg for such 

 to be sent to me. All entomologists and arachnologists who have done 

 scientific work as authors or as collectors are to be dealt with in this 

 work. The autobiographies will, as far as possible, be printed in the 

 form and the language as sent to me. Those who do not send their 

 autobiographies ought not to expect that their biographies shall be 

 contained in the book. Should anybody be willing to collect contribu- 

 tions for the work, I would beg him to be so kind as to communicate 

 with me. The printing of the work is not in question. — Embrik Strand, 

 Professor of Zoology and Director of the Systematic Zoological Institute 

 of the University of Biga (Latvia), Kronvalda bulvars 9.
