Pierre Viette

[John R. Grehan]

I don't know how many on this list may or may not be familiar with Pierre 
Viette, but for those interested I have drafted a web page biography on 
this French lepidopterist who kindly provided me with the information. 
Viette worked on the taxonomy of many Lepidoptera for about five decades, 
including the ghost moths (Hepialidae) of interest to me. What is posted is 
a first draft so I would certainly be grateful to hear from anyone with 
suggestions about content etc
