He suffered from four types of cancer and a double pneumonia. It seems that the last finally was too much for him. Tomorrow he will be burried in Jayapura. He was 72 years old. His plans to come and settle again in The Netherlands next year he couldn't fullfill. His collection will stay in Papua in the Cenderawasih University in Waena where it hopefully will be good taken care of by the students and teachers of UNCEN. Evie Warikar (warikarevie at gmail.com) will supervise over his collection and all the communications concerning his collection go through her. yours sincerely, Rob [http://logo.naturalis.nl/logo.png] Rob de Vos collection manager Lepidoptera (Heterocera, moths) T 071-7519304, M 06-40224533 Darwinweg 2 - 2333 CR Leiden, The Netherlands E Rob.deVos at naturalis.nl I , www.naturalis.nl Have a look at www.papua-insects.nl or facebook https://www.facebook.com/papua.insects.foundation?ref=profile to see what the Papua Insects Foundation achieves with local Papua biology students and more than 50 international entomologists.
