Scientific paper

IN an obituary notice of the late Sir George Greenhill, published in NATURE of Feb. 26, it is stated that he was ``a corresponding member of the Paris Academy of Sciences.'' Sir George was not a corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences. He was a `Correspondant' of that Academy `pour la section de m6canique,' elected in 1921. Similarly, it is stated in the same issue in the obituary notice of the American paleontologist Walcott, that that distinguished American was ``a corresponding member'' of the Academy of Sciences of Paris. He was not, but was elected by that Académie as `Correspondant' in the section of mineralogy in 1918. In 1919 he vacated that place on being elected one of the twelve `membres associés étrangers' of the Academy.
