ANNUAL REVIEW OF ENTOMOLOGY Vol. 21
This year the Annual Review of Entomology goes to press with eighteen chapters that deal as the policy of th topics from the many subdisciplines in entomology Continued is the policy of having a biographical chapter on some outstanding entomologist, in this volume it is on the Comstocks. We hope that the present volume will be as well received as the twenty previous Reviews
We do have one note of sadness. On May 23, 1974, when still a few months short of sixty years of age, Brian Hocking died after a year of operations, recoveries, and relapses. Born and educated in London, he spent eight years in India before coming to Alberta in 1946. Through the years, he gained a fine reputation as a scientist, teacher, administrator, and humanitarian. His counsel was widely sought, and the Annual Review of Entomology has profited from his advice many times indeed, as has the entire field of entomology. G. E. Ball spoke for all of us at the memorial service for Brian: "We can but temper our sorrow at his passing with gratitude for his life."
We want to thank the guests who helped us select topics and authors at the 1973 meeting of the Editorial Committee, as well as the numerous entomologists who made suggestions. Again, we would like to remind all readers that we welcome suggestions of topics for review (preferably with names of persons who might be able to prepare the reviews). Please send suggestions to Annual Reviews Inc. in Palo Alto or communicate them directly to one of the Editors or Editorial Committee mem- bers.
Our former Assistant Editor, Jean McComish, has been succeeded by Louise Libby, who has had the responsibility of processing the present volume. To her and to the compositors and printers we express thanks for their contribution, which is second only to that of the authors of the various chapters.
