Abstract

WE regret to announce the death of Mr. Herbert Clifton Chadwick on Sept. 16 at the age of seventy-three years. He was the last survivor of a group of scientific men who, in the 'eighties of the last century, began the biological investigation of the Irish Sea region. For this purpose the late Sir William Herdman founded the Biological Station at Port Erin, in the Isle of Man, and Mr. H. C. Chadwick, then a business man in Manchester and an amateur naturalist, was made curator of the laboratories. He was a recognised authority on the morphology and systematics of the Echino-dermata and was the author of many papers on these subjects. But his general zoological knowledge was very wide and in his capacity of curator of the Port Erin Station he was able to assist very many investigators and students who worked there during the last forty years.
