    Autobiography of Mrs. Fletcher of Edinburgh

    No full text
    Eliza Fletcher (born Eliza Dawson) (1770–1858) was an English writer, literary patron and supporter of parliamentary reform and liberal politics. Fletcher became a patron of the poets Ann Yearsley and Hannah More, and later in life formed friendships with prominent writers Elizabeth Gaskell and Harriet Martineau. After her marriage to politician and electoral reformer Archibald Fletcher in 1791, she became more radical in her political views. This volume, first published in 1874, contains Fletcher's autobiography, edited by her daughter, Lady Mary Richardson. Fletcher describes her life chronologically, providing fascinating detail on her childhood and adolescence, and citing correspondence illustrating her relationships with her friends. She provides sharp observations on political issues and describes the social and literary circles in which she moved, giving valuable information on literary society and politics during the early nineteenth century.

    Distantasca smithi (Fletcher & Donaldson, 1992), n. comb. (Figs 1 –6, 25, 28, 31) Empoasca (Empoasca) smithi Fletcher & Donaldson, 1992: 183 –186 Type materials. Australia: holotype (examined): &male;, Queensland: Mundubbera, 1.iii. 1989, coll. D. Smith, ex Citrus (ASCU); paratypes (examined): 3 &female;&female;, same data as holotype Distribution. Australia (Queensland). Note. The anal tube appendages of Distantasca smithi are well developed and the long and narrow subgenital plates have macrosetae reaching the tip of the plate (Figs 1–2). The setae of group group D are divided into two bands one near the mid-length of the plate and one just before the apex and are elongate and hairlike setae (Fig 1). This is a diagnostic feature of Distantasca and consequently this species is transferred from Empoasca (Empoasca) into the genus Distantasca. The narrow, constricted stem of the connective is also characteristic of Distantasca although it is narrower in D. smithi than in other known members of the genus.Published as part of Liu, Yang, Fletcher, Murray J. & Zhang, Ya-Lin, 2014, Reinstatement of Distantasca Dworakowska (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Typhlocybinae: Empoascini) as a valid genus with new species and new combinations in Zootaxa 3869 (1), DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3869.1.9, http://zenodo.org/record/23131
