meters) tall.
Having trained in the Yagyū Shinkage\-ryū, Oishi started his own style of swordsmanship called the Oishi Shinkage Ryu, which attracted many pupils and made Oishi comparatively wealthy. He also made money from *dojo arashi* (dojo storming), a practice in which a skilled swordsman would challenge masters of other schools. As Oishi was a formidable fighter, many teachers paid him off in order to avoid the embarrassment of a public defeat. Oishi himself eventually suffered a swift and humiliating defeat at the hands of Otani Nobutomo, a fencer of the Jikishinkage\-ryū.
He specialised in powerful thrusting techniques, which were made more effective by the length of his weapon. At the time there was no standardisation of equipment in kendo, and Oishi was noted for using exceptionally long swords or *shinai* (practice swords), sometimes with blades as long as {\|5\|feet\|three}inches}.160 He also made use of customised *bōgu* (kendo armour), adding complex deflective crests and flaps to confound an opponent's attacks. |

Francisco E.

Dedication page of report reads: "To FRANCISCO EDLAGAN BAISAS Dean of Philippine Culiddologists we respectfully dedicate this work. His contribution to the knowledge of Philippine mosquitoes is without measure." Acknowledgment page reads: "The authors are very much indebted to Mr. F.E. Baisas, who contributed substantially to the formation of the keys and loaned several illustrations..." His passing was described as the end of "an era which saw the elucidation of the malaria vectors of the Philippines and great progress made in the control of a disease which had accounted for as many as 2,000,000 cases annually in those islands."Knight, KL and Pugh RB. "Francisco E. Baisas (1896–1973\)" Mosquito Systematics Vol, 6(1\) 1974 75 https://archive.org/stream/cbarchive\_118570\_franciscoebaisas189619731974/MS\_V06\_N1\_P074\-77\_djvu.txt
He pioneered the study of mosquitoes in the Philippines. His taxonomic studies of 71 new species dating back to 1927 enhanced the development of mosquito systematics and established the knowledge base for these winged vectors of the highly infectious tropical disease, malaria. His works contributed greatly to the control of malaria, severe cases of which even today can lead to death – 627,000 in 2012 alone according to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The first Filipino to be trained as a malaria technician by the International Health Division of the Rockefeller Foundation, Baisas later was employed as an entomologist by the US Army's 3rd General Medical Laboratory and the Philippine's Institute of Malariology under whose auspices he conducted most of his life work. In 1955, the Philippine Government named him among the country's Ten Outstanding Scientists, awarding him a gold medal and a Diploma of Honor for his contributions to the study of malaria and mosquitoes in the Philippines.
A prolific author who published scholarly scientific works almost to his dying day, his publications are archived at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC where specimen plates of the mosquito species he discovered and therefore carry his name are also preserved (catalogued as "F. Baisas Scientific Works, Smithsonian, Washington DC, South East Asia Mosquito Project, NHB455"). Some of his works, were also published by the Chicago Natural History Museum (now the Field Museum). A tireless researcher, he continued his work even in retirement, establishing his now defunct Baisas Entomological Research Laboratory in the backyard of his home in Pasig, a Manila suburb, where he wrote his perhaps most voluminous publication, the scrupulously illustrated, 300\-page downloadable book entitled *The Mosquito Fauna of Subic Bay Naval Reservation*, published in the early 1970s, which details the taxonomy of some 90 mosquito species and subspecies in this area alone. The mosquito species named after him are often the subject vector of research studies on malaria being carried out to this day in laboratories all over the world, e.g., *Anopheles baisasi* among others, and often cited in the title and body of research papers on mosquito taxonomy and the prevention of malaria.
Francisco E. Baisas died in 1973, within a little more than a year of his beloved wife Crispina's unexpected death in Madisonville, Kentucky where he and his wife of nearly 60 years spent the last 3 years of their lives with one of their eight children, all of whom were accomplished professionals. |

There is a patch of partly raised chestnut scales on the cell at one\-third from the base, as well as a few similar scales in the fold somewhat beyond it, and, at the outer extremity of the cell a strong patch of raised dull golden scales, mixed with fuscous, whence a rich chestnut streak is produced to the apex, somewhat dilated upward to the costa above it. The hindwings are pale cupreous.Biol. centr.\-amer. Lep. Heterocera 4 : 10 |
