Published 'Scent of Cicindela campestris' in Zoo., 22, 1864, p.9077. Is this, perhaps, the son of Thomas Ingall, see above? (MD 6/03)

This is presumably the 'Mr Ingall' referred to by Dawson (1854) p.61. He was employed for many years by the Bank of England and was a keen naturalist with a particular interest in entomology being one of the original members of the Entomological Club and the Entomological Society. Selected Coleoptera and Lepidoptera from Ingall's collection are in the HDO, purchased from St. Bartholomew's Hospital in 1927. (Smith (1986) p.129), and twelve examples of Cryptocephalus coryli were presented by him to the NHM in 1857 (1857-23).

Born in London but lived most of his life in Brisbane, Australia where he died. Appears to have worked mainly on Lepidoptera but did publish notes on other insects including Coleoptera in Proc. R. Soc. Queensland, eg. 'Notes on the entomology of a tea tree swamp' (15, 1900, 1-3) and 'Miscellanea Entomologica or odd notes on the history and transformations of various insects' (15, 1900, 133-136), and other journals.
