OBITUARY: In memory of Dr. John D. Bradley FRES (24 December 1920 - 4 January 2004)

At the beginning of this year, we read with great regret an e-mail from David Bradley on the death of his father Dr. John David Bradley. John was not only outstanding lepidopterist, but also a faithful friend of both of us and an extremely helpful English language editor of this journal. His contribution was invaluable, especially in the early years of Acta Entomologica Bohemoslovaca (predecessor of EJE) when the editors were striving to transform a local periodical into an internationally respected journal.As a scientist at the Department Entomology of the British Museum (Natural History) and at the Identification Service of the Commonwealth Institute of Entomology John Bradley was well known all over the world and was warmly regarded by many colleagues. His biography was published in Acta Entomologica Bohemoslovaca (1991, Vol. 88, pp. 79-80). An obituary by David Agassiz will be published in Entomologist's Record, and another obituary with biographical and personal notices will appear (in Czech) in Klapalekiana.
