Description
Excerpt from Dermaptera (Earwigs)
IN this the first of the ''fauna of British India'' Series issued under my Editorship, I would wish to record my sense of the loss Science has sustained through the death of the late lieutenant-colonel C. T. Bingham. He succeeded Dr. Blanford, who initiated and edited the Series for more than twenty years, in 1905, and since that time devoted himself unremittingly to the task he then took up. His loss has been widely felt, especially amongst the workers in systematic Entomology: if I may quote his own words about his predecessor To few, however, will that loss be personally so great as to those who under his direction were working for the Fauna of India series.
