 to the "Badminton" and "Bailey's" Magazines — but it was as an 

 entomologist that he was chiefly known. He was the proprietor of " The 

 Entomologist," and much of his work appeared in its pages. He had 

 travelled in pursuit of entomology in the interior of Brazil, through 

 Northern India to the boundary of Thibet, and through out-of-the-way 

 parts of China, Corea, and Japan. Of this latter journey the fruits were 

 seen in his work on the "Butterflies of China, Corea, and Japan" He 

 also published in 1886 " British Pyralidce." His very large and im- 

 portant collections are now preserved in the Natural History Museum at 

 South Kensington (see Entomologist, June, 1901).
