Abstract
PROF. S. J. JOHNSTON has not long survived his former chief, Prof. W. A. Haswell. Johnston joined the staff of the Department of Zoology in the University of Sydney in 1906, and soon became known as a stimulating lecturer and demonstrator in the practical classes. His memoir on the Trematodes of Australian frogs gained for him the doctor's degree in 1912. On the retirement of Prof. Haswell in 1918, Johnston was appointed to succeed him, but his health soon failed and he resigned at the beginning of 1922. He died on July 16.
