A few notes are in order respecting five names omitted from the foregoing list. The first name aulestis is spelled aulestes in the text (vol.3: p. 161) but is invalid, because not a binominal. The name sesonia (vol.5: p.176) is the French spelling for cesonia. Since the latter has precedence, being in the Dutch text, and is the only valid usage because of its employment in the index as a binominal, it has been used. The name iole in the text (vol.1 : p. 17) is jole in the index. The former is not a binominal so is invalid and jole has been used. There are two spellings for the next name, trixus (vol.4: p.252) and tryxus (vol.4: p.87). The latter is invalid as used in the text. Finally zelmire and zelmira used respectively in the index (vol.4: p.252) and text (vol.4: p.64) must be treated in the same way for the same reason, resulting in the use of zelmire.

KARL JORDAN (1861-1959)
Dr. H. E. Karl Jordan died at Hempel Hempstead near Tring, England, after a lingering illness, on 12 January 1959. This was five weeks after his 97th birthday. He was an Honorary Life Member and past President of the Lepidopterists' Society and was one of the ablest lepidopterists of all time. In addition to Lepidoptera, he was a world authority on fleas and on certain groups of beetles. In due course we shall publish a biographical obituary.
