Well known Dipterist but his interest as a teenager was with ants which led to a meeting with Horace Donisthorpe and to his only publication to mention beetles 'Dorcus parallelipipedus (L.) and ant’s nest in the same tree’, in Entomologist's Monthly Magazine (1943, 79: 251). His address is given as 17 Grange Park, Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol. There is an obituary including bibliography and photograph in the same periodical (2021, 57: 243-247). (MD 1/22, 9/22)
