EVANS, William Edgar

Submitted by admin on
Son of William Evans (see above). Collected a large number of insects in Mesopotamia while serving there as a Captain in the R.A.M.C.. K.J.Morton, ‘Odonata from Mesopotamia’ in EMM., 55, 1919, pp.142-151, gives some account of his travels there. Many of these insects, including types, were subsequently acquired by the RSM (1951.73) together with Evans's collecting diary. (MD 10/02)
