Norman Joy refers to 'looking over the collection of C.E.Collin' in EMM., 40, 1904, p.14. At that time Collin, who lived at Calcot, near Reading, had recently died. His collection passed to Reading Museum. It includes a specimen of Medon dilutus identified by Joy (Peter Hammond says correctly) but, interestingly, not included by him in his Handbook (Information from John Owen). (MD 3/03)
