Abstract
WE regret to learn that at the beginning of this year Dr. Kalman Lambrecht, the palaeontologist, died at Budapest from heart failure in his forty-seventh year. He was librarian to the Geological Survey of Hungary, and will be best remembered by his researches and writings on the fossil remains of birds. In 1921 he contributed the section on birds to the “Fossilium Catalogus”, and in 1933 he published his exhaustive “Handbuch der Palseornithologie”, which was reviewed in NATURE of January 19, 1935, p. 84. Dr. Lambrecht was also interested in biography, and at the time of his death he was occupied with a life of the late Baron Francis Nopcsa.
