FRASER, F.C.

Submitted by admin on
Well-known worker on Dragonflies. While stationed in India where he was a doctor and surgeon in the army he collected more than 400 beetles which he gave to the NHM between 1923 and 1934 (1923.345, 1925.223, 1925.452, 1926.465, 1926.496, 1934.638). K.C.Lewis tells me that he also has beetles collected by Fraser in his collection. There is a collection of manuscript material in the NHM including 70 letters to A.E. Gardner and 20 from him to Fraser, c.1949-1958. There is an obituary in EMM., 99, 1963, p.96 including a portrait. (MD 12/02, 12/06)
