Burgholzhausen, August Friedrich von
August Friedrich Count Makschall, of Burgholzhausen and Tromsdorf, who has frequently contributed to the Geological Magazine, as well as to the Quart. Journ. Geological Society, notes on Geology and Palasontology, especially from the researches of his Colleagues in Vienna, died suddenly on the 11th of October, in his 83rd year.
He was a Foreign Correspondent of the Geological Society of London, and Correspondent and Member of many other learned Societies, " also Hereditary Marschal in Thtiringia, Imp. Eoy. Chamberlain, and formerly Archivist of the Imp. Eoy. Geological Institute of Vienna. Plis frequent communications on papers read at the Academy, Institute, and other Societies, forwarded by him to various European friends and periodicals, were continued with his usual industry (his motto being " Nunquam otiosus ") to within a short time of his death. His " Nomenclator zoologicus," combining both recent and fossil genera, published by the Zoologico-Botanical Society of Vienna in 1873, is a very valuable book of reference; and the " Ornis Vindobonensis," 1882, is written in conjunction with Dr. A. von Pelzeln, also bears evidence to our deceased friend Count Makschall's scientific zeal and usefulness.
