Insect a. 591 



In 1885, Capitaine Kerremans became possessed of Chev* -hit's collection 

 and in 1894 obtained Fairmaire's collection of exotic species. A large 

 number of the types of these two authors are therefore now in the 

 Museum. 



Kirby (Rev. William). [1759-1850] 



Most of the specimens which were the subjects of the following 

 memoirs are in the Museum. 



" A Century of Insects." Trans. Linn. Soc, xii. 1818. 



About sixty of these species were presented by the Entomological 

 Society in 1863. They are at present in a separate drawer, but will be 

 incorporated when circumstances permit. 



"New species of Insects collected in New Holland by Robert Brown 

 Esq." Trans. Linn. Soc, xii. 1818. 



Some of these at least are in the Museum. 



The Coleoptera described in Richardson's " Fauna Boreali-Americana " 

 Vol. iii. 1837. 



These are incorporated in the general collection. 



Kirby's British Coleoptera. 



Portions of his collection of British Coleoptera are in the Museum, 

 containing the Hydradephaga, Clavicornia, Brachelytra, Lamellicornia, 

 Serricornia, Malacodermata, Rhynchophora and Phytophaga. 



These are kept in a separate cabinet. The most important part 

 contains the specimens of Apion which were the subject of his monograph 

 in vols. ix. and x. of the Transactions of the Linnean Society, 1808-11.

The Bees which were the subject of Kirby's " Monographia Apum 

 Angliae," 1802, are in the Museum. They are kept in separate drawers.
