HANS KAUTZ, the Austrian lepidopterist known especially for his outstanding work with Pieris bryoniaj and P. napi, died at the age of 85 at Seewalchen, Upper Austria, on 28 October 1954. According to an obituary notice by S. R. BoWDEN in The En­tomologist (vol. 87: p. 272; 1954), KAUTZ was born in Vienna on 5 June 1870, took his diploma in mechanical engineering at Vienna, and served with the State Railways until his retirement in 1923- His principal publication, with L. MULLER as co-author, was a superb monograph on P. napi and P. bryonice published in 1939 (Abh. Oesterr. Ent. Ver., vol. 1:191 pp.)- KAUTZ by then had personally studied alive at least 50,000 of these complicated and controversial Pieris and had reared over 200 broods. His entire collection, notes, and library were destroyed in his house by a bomb in February 1945. Nevertheless, he continued publishing occasional papers after the war.
