Antwerp E. Pratt

[veldkamp]

Antwerp E. Pratt was an explorer and professional (mainly entomological)
collector in China, New Guinea, S America, Syria, and possibly other places
as well. I do not know much more than is stated in the Flora Malesiana and
by Desmond. He also seems to have been awarded a medal by the Royal
Geographical Society. Can anybody refer to a source of biographical data on
him? Biography, necrology, etc.
Thanks! (Please contact me directly)
