The AmericanMidland Naturalist PublishedBi-Monthly by The Universityof Notre Dame, NotreDame, Indiana VOL. 33 JANUARY, 1945 No. 1 Bibliographyof Biographiesof Entomologists* Mathilde M. Carpenter For more than fifteenyears the excellent "Bibliography of Entomologists" prepared by Mr. J. S. Wade, Ann. Ent. Soc. Amer., 21:489-520, 1928, has proved of great value to all who have an interest in the development of the science. The time seems ripe for what might be called a second edition of the work, one which will bring the subject up to date and which at the same time will enlarge its scope to include the records of biographical matter for all entomologists of all countries. It is intended that the list will be complete through 1943. The work was undertaken because of frequent inquiries about more or less inaccessible biographical data, and has been carried out in spare time for several years. All the leading entomological periodicals and many other sources have been consulted. The referencesinclude not only obituaries, but birthdays, portraits, anniversaries,biographies and disposition of collections. As regards the last named item, the writer regrets that the italicized C could not have been placed before a referenceto indicate the disposal and present location of a collection, but the realization of its importance came too late to be utilized. However, such information of all important insect collections up to 1937 can be found in an extensive paper by Walther Horn and Ilse Kahle in Entomologische Beihefte aus Berlin-Dahlem, 2:1-160, 1935; 3:161-296, 1936; 4:297-388, 1937. Mistakes and omissions undoubtedly occur. In spite of these, the writer hopes that the work as a whole will be useful and she will welcome corrections of these errors.
