# Alys Fane Trotter

Alys Fane Trotter (née Keatinge; 16 December 1863 – 21 December 1961) was an Irish poet and artist.
She was born in Dublin, the daughter of Ella Flora Mayne (1828–1907) and Maurice Keatinge (1816–1896). Maurice was the Principal Registrar at the Irish Court of Probate; his wife from a long established Wiltshire family with an estate at Teffont Evias. The family moved to London when she was young. On 30 June 1886, at St James's Church, Paddington, Alys married Alexander Pelham Trotter (1857–1947). He was the son of banker Alexander Trotter (1804–1865), by his second wife, Isabella Strange (1816–1878), daughter of Thomas Andrew Lumisden Strange.
From 1896 to 1899, Alexander was the Electrical advisor to the Cape Colony government in southern Africa. Whilst living there Alys and Alexander explored the Cape and Alys wrote and illustrated "Old cape Colony: a chronicle of her men and houses from 1652 to 1806". Some of Trotter's drawings are now in the William Fehr Collections in South Africa. See, for example, Head of a Labourer, Pressing Grapes, Old House at Stellenbosch.
When they returned to England they lived at Teffont Evias. Trotter wrote poetry and was published in periodicals including Punch and the Cornhill Magazine.
Alys and Alexander had a son Alexander Nigel, known as Nigel, born in 1894 and a daughter Gundred Eleanor born in 1889. Nigel was killed in action on 12 October 1914 at La Fosse, near Vielle Chapelle, Bethune:
   The ground over which the British had to advance was intersected by small irrigation canals crossed by plank bridges, on which the officers and men offered a good target. Lieut. Trotter is believed to have been first hit while crossing one of these bridges, and after advancing three-quarters of a mile fell with two more wounds.
His death influenced her writing, and her poetry reflected on her life with Nigel and her loss. Her poem collections were: "Nigel, and other verses" by published by Burns & Oates in 1918; and "Houses and Dreams" published by Blackwell, Oxford in 1924. Poems were also included in several anthologies of war poems, including "Poems from Punch 1909 – 1920", published by Macmillan, 1922; Valour and Vision: Poems of the War, 1914 - 1918", edited by Trotter's niece Jacqueline Theodora Trotter and published by Longmans, Green, 1920; and "Valour and Vision" Poems of the War, 1914 - 1918, a new edition, published by Hopkinson, 1923.
Trotter also continued drawing and painting. She died on 21 December 1961 at Greystones in Teffont Evias.

## Family

Her daughter Gundred married Horace Courthope Beck, an archaeologist.
Her father's brother was Victoria Cross recipient Lt.-Gen. Richard Harte Keatinge; and Major Sir Edward Mayne Keatinge was her nephew.
Her husband's sister was the missionary Isabel Lilias Trotter; and Jacqueline Theodora Trotter (see above) was the daughter of his step-brother Col. Sir Henry Trotter.
Her cousin, Louisa Kathleen Coutts Trotter (1863–1961), was the wife of the physiologist John Scott Haldane.

# Eucalyptus planchoniana

Eucalyptus planchoniana, commonly known as the needlebark stringybark or bastard tallowwood is a species of small to medium-sized tree that is endemic to eastern Australia. It has rough, stringy bark on the trunk and larger branches, lance-shaped to curved adult leaves, flower buds in groups of seven, white flowers and cup-shaped, cylindrical or barrel-shaped fruit.

## Description

Eucalyptus planchoniana is a tree that typically grows to a height of 20–25 m (66–82 ft) and forms a lignotuber. It has rough, reddish, often prickly, stringy bark on the trunk and larger branches. Young plants and coppice regrowth have elliptical to lance-shaped or curved, bluish green leaves that are 70–20 mm (2.76–0.79 in) long and 23–70 mm (0.91–2.76 in) wide and petiolate. Adult leaves are the same shade of green or bluish green on both sides, lance-shaped to curved, 80–260 mm (3.1–10.2 in) long and 15–35 mm (0.59–1.38 in) wide on a petiole 15–32 mm (0.59–1.26 in) long. The flower buds are arranged in leaf axils on an unbranched, flattened peduncle 20–32 mm (0.79–1.26 in) wide, the individual buds on pedicels 20–32 mm (0.79–1.26 in) long. Mature buds are oval to spindle-shaped or diamond-shaped, 20–29 mm (0.79–1.14 in) long and 8–10 mm (0.31–0.39 in) wide with a conical to beaked operculum. Flowering occurs from October to December and the flowers are white. The fruit is a woody, cup-shaped, cylindrical or barrel-shaped capsule 17–28 mm (0.67–1.10 in) long and 16–26 mm (0.63–1.02 in) wide with the valves below rim level.

## Taxonomy and naming

Eucalyptus planchoniana was first formally described in 1878 by Ferdinand von Mueller in Fragmenta phytographiae Australiae from material collected from near Moreton Bay by Frederick Manson Bailey. The specific epithet honours Jules Emile Planchon.

## Distribution and habitat

Needlebark stringbark grows in open forest on low ridges and gentle slopes from Moreton Island and Stradbroke Island in Queensland to Camden Haven in coastal New South Wales and as far inland as the Gibraltar Range National Park.

# Eucalyptus nebulosa

Eucalyptus nebulosa, commonly known as the serpentine peppermint, is a species of small tree that is endemic to the northwest of Tasmania. It has smooth, creamy white bark, narrow elliptic adult leaves, flower buds usually arranged in groups of between seven and eleven, pale creamy white flowers and hemispherical or more or less top-shaped fruit.

## Description

Eucalyptus nebulosa is a tree that typically grows to a height of 3.5–5 metres (11–16 ft) and has smooth bark that is creamy white when fresh. Young plants and coppice regrowth have leaves arranged in opposite pairs, the same greyish blue colour on both sides, 24–45 mm (0.94–1.77 in) long and 15–25 mm (0.59–0.98 in) wide on a petiole up to 2 mm (0.079 in) long. Adult leaves are arranged alternately, pale bluish grey and glaucous, narrow elliptical, mostly 50–80 mm (2.0–3.1 in) long and 8–12 mm (0.31–0.47 in) wide on a petiole 10–15 mm (0.39–0.59 in) long. The flower buds are arranged in groups of mostly seven, nine or eleven on a peduncle 5–10 mm (0.20–0.39 in) long, the individual buds sessile or on pedicels 2–3 mm (0.079–0.118 in) long. Mature buds are club-shaped, with a conical floral cup 2–3 mm (0.079–0.118 in) long, and an operculum 1–1.5 mm (0.039–0.059 in) long. Flowering occurs from December to March and the fowers are pale creamy white. The fruit is a woody hemispherical or slightly top-shaped capsule 3–5 mm (0.12–0.20 in) long and wide with the valves near rim level.

## Taxonomy and naming

Eucalyptus nebulosa was first formally described in 2008 by Alan Maurice Gray in the journal Kanunnah, from a specimen collected north of the Pieman Road about 7 km (4.3 mi) west of the Huskisson River. The specific epithet (nebulosa) is from the Latin nebulosus meaning "misty" or "cloudy", referring to the smoky or hazy effect of the bluish grey leaves from a distance.

## Distribution and habitat

Serpentine peppermint is the dominant tree species on serpentinite between the Wilson and Huskisson Rivers, tributaries of the Pieman River in the northwest of Tasmania.
# Eucnemesaurus

Eucnemesaurus (/juːkˌniːmɪˈsɔːrəs/; meaning "good tibia lizard", for its robust tibiae) is a basal sauropodomorph dinosaur genus usually considered to be a synonym of Euskelosaurus. Recent study by Yates (2006), however, indicates that it is valid and the same animal as putative "giant herrerasaurid" Aliwalia.
Eucnemesaurus was named in 1920 by Egbert Cornelis Nicolaas van Hoepen. The type species is Eucnemesaurus fortis. The specific name means "strong" in Latin. It is based on holotype TrM 119, a partial skeleton including vertebrae, part of a pubis, a femur, and two tibiae. The remains were found by Van Hoepen in the late Carnian-early Norian-age Upper Triassic Lower Elliot Formation of the Slabberts district, Orange Free State, South Africa. Yates assigned the genus to the new family Riojasauridae, with Riojasaurus, usually regarded as a melanorosaurid.

## Aliwalia

Fossil material now assigned to Eucnemesaurus was once placed in a separate genus and species, Aliwalia rex (the generic name was taken from the Aliwal Park Reserve in the Union of South Africa, where the first remains were found). The fossil evidence of this species was comparably small, with for many years only femoral fragments and a maxilla known, having been sent from South Africa to Austria in 1873 in a shipment with prosauropod bones.
The size of the femur led many palaeontologists to believe (along with the clearly carnivorous maxilla), that Aliwalia was a carnivorous dinosaur of remarkable size for the age in which lived. It would have been comparable to that of the large Jurassic and Cretaceous theropods, such as Allosaurus, that evolved tens of millions of years after Aliwalia. The original material was believed to bear a strong similarity to the South American Herrerasaurus, so much so that Aliwalia was originally classified in Herrerasauridae by Peter Galton.
However, later re-evaluation of the material has shown that the maxilla assigned to Aliwalia does not, unlike the other material, belong to Eucnemesaurus, as it is clearly from a carnivore. In addition, new material clearly demonstrates this latter genus' sauropodomorph affinities.

# Eugene Jordan Gerberg

Eugene J. Gerberg (1919–2011), also known as Gene Gerberg, was an American entomologist and entomological entrepreneur.
Born June 1, 1919, in Brooklyn, New York, Gerberg completed a Bachelor of Science degree in entomology in 1939, and then a Master of Science degree in 1941, both at Cornell University, Ithaca, New York.
In 1941, Gerberg accepted a commission as first lieutenant in the U.S. Public Health Service. His first assignment was with the Malaria Control in War Areas (MCWA) unit at New Smyrna Beach, Florida, established to control malaria around military training bases in areas where mosquitoes were abundant, to prevent reintroduction of malaria into the civilian population by mosquitoes feeding on malaria-infected soldiers. MCWA, the forerunner of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, also trained state and local health department officials in malaria control strategies and techniques.
In 1943, Gerberg was commissioned a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army Sanitary Corps and assigned as assistant camp medical inspector for Camp Lee, Virginia, charged with ridding the barracks of an infestation of bed bugs so severe it had received Congressional attention. After the war, he transferred to the U.S. Army Reserves to continue his military service.
In 1946, Gerberg co-founded Insect Control & Research in Baltimore, Maryland, a business venture that became highly successful for him and his partners. In 1954, he completed his Doctor of Philosophy degree in entomology and plant pathology at the University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland.
Gerberg's notable achievements include several seminal publications. He authored the first U.S. Public Health Service pictorial key for the identification of anopheline mosquito larvae for the national malaria control program (1943), a revision of the New World species of powder post beetles of the family Lyctidae (1957), a manual for mosquito rearing and experimental techniques (1970), a manual of Florida butterflies (1989), and a bibliography of publications dealing with repellents effective against blood-feeding arthropods and leeches (2001). For many years, he single-handedly updated and published the World Directory of Arthropod Vector Research & Control Specialists on an annual basis.
In the 1990s, Gerberg retired as a colonel from the U.S. Army Medical Service Corps and an adjunct professor of entomology at the University of Florida, but remained active in the entomology community. He died in Gainesville, Florida, on December 19, 2011, at the age of 92.

## Honors

Gerberg's work and expertise were recognized with a number of awards over the years, including the American Mosquito Control Association's Meritorious Service Award in 1980, life membership in the National Pest Control Association awarded in 1980, American Registry of Professional Entomologists' Outstanding Medical/Veterinary Entomologist for 1983, and honorary membership in the Entomological Society of America in 1993 and the Florida Entomological Society in 1995.
# Eugène Bertrand

Eugène Bertrand (15 January 1834 – 30 December 1899) was a French comedian, theatre managing director and opera house director.

## Life

Born in Paris, he made his debut in the theatre at the Théâtre des Jeunes-Artistes then at the Théâtre de l'Odéon in Paris. From 1859 to 1865, he was a comedian then theatre manager in the United-States. In 1865, he was hired at the Théâtre du Parc in Brussels, before he briefly managed the two theatres in Lille (northern France). He then was managing director of the Théâtre des Variétés from 1869 to 1891. He was director of the Opéra Garnier from 1 January 1892 until his death in 1899, first in association with Campocasso, and then from 1894, with Pedro Gailhard. At the Opéra he was the first to successfully produce operas by Richard Wagner and also mounted a new production Saint-Saëns' Samson et Dalila (1892) and gave the first performance of Massenet's Thaïs (1894).
