Well known New Zealand entomologist who was born in London. His father was an artist who taught him to paint insects well enough that he was able to write and illustrate a small book at the age of twelve. Almost all his publications were on subjects other than beetles although he did write a number of works on glow worms in New Zealand eg. Ent., 24, 1891, pp.26-29. In spite of this his obituary in Proc.RESL, C, 11, 1946-47, p.61, states that he was 'an assiduous collector, especially of the Coleoptera'.
