Famous Lepidopterist Charles Remington passed away on May 31. He was a very interesting character who made great strides in the study of butterflies and moths. He's (in)famous for eating cicadas and for collecting butterflies with Vladimir Nabokov. Two different obits can be found here and here.

I am sorry to hear this! Not sure if I have ever herd of him though!
Live in NJ, work the Corporate life by day, try to be an amateur naturalist the rest of the time. I currently volunteer as an Associate Naturalist for the NJ Audubon Society.
