Excerpt from Journal of the New York Entomological Society, Vol. 8: Devoted to Entomology in General; 1900 The development of the wings inside of the body of the larvae of insects with a complete metamorphosis is one of the most striking features in the transformations of insects; it is, however, one that is not generally understood. Although the fact that caterpillars have wings was discovered by Malpighi (1687) and by Swammerdam (1738), it is only in the last half of the present century that any exact information as to their method of development has been obtained; and this information is only just finding its way into the general text-books. The beginning of the solution of the problem was made by Weissmann ('64 and '66) in his remarkable papers on the development of flies. These papers were followed by important contributions by Landois ('71), Ganin ('76), Dewitz ('81), Pancritius ('84), Schaffer ('89), Mayer ('96), Gonin ('92), and others. The most complete account that has yet appeared is that of Gonin. Nearly two years ago, in the course of some studies of the development of the wings of Pieris, Professor Comstock came to the conclusion that in some respects the excellent account by Gonin was inaccurate. And at his suggestion I undertook the repetition of the tracing of the development of the wings in this insect. The following paper is the result of this investigation. As Gonin's contribution appeared in a journal which is to be found in but few libraries in this country, it seems worth while to publish for American readers my complete results even though in many particulars they duplicate the results of Gonin.

Advances in Quaternary Entomology addresses the science of fossil insects by demonstrating their immense contribution to our knowledge of the paleoenvironmental and climatological record of the past 2.6 million years. In this comprehensive survey of the field, Scott A. Elias recounts development of scholarship, reviews the fossil insect record from Quaternary deposits throughout the world, and points to rewarding areas for future research. The study of Quaternary entomology is becoming an important tool in understanding past environmental changes. Most insects are quite specific as to habitat requirements, and those in non-island environments have undergone almost no evolutionary change in the Quaternary period. We therefore can use their modern ecological requirements as a basis for interpreting what past environments must have been like. Describes and identifies principal characteristics of fossil insect groups of the Quaternary period Ties Quaternary insect studies to the larger field of paleoecology Offers global coverage of the subject with specific regional examples Illustrates specific methods and procedures for conducting research in Quaternary Entomology Offers unique insight into overlying trends and broader implications of Quaternary climate change based on insect life of the period

Excerpt from The Entomologist's Monthly Magazine, 1871-72, Vol. 8 It is expedient to have no more synonymy, a word which has now lost all its original meaning. When, out of chaos, synonymy was born, it served a very useful object. Then, six persons called the same insect by as many different names, because they used different books. All the descriptive works on entomology were costly, and few people could possess more than their one author. Then, entomologists of different countries knew nothing of each other s books, and there was real confusion in the names of species and of genera. In short, the error among entomologists was then not communis the majority knew nothing of any other name than that which they themselves used. The case is now so altered, that synonymy does not any longer answer its former function. All entomologists use one name in the vast majority of cases. There is no real confusion, even if different names are used; as, in the very few cases of doubt, entomologists know and use both the names Doom and its synonyms), and no list-writer would be much of a guide in such contested cases as those. The evil in fact now is felt in quite the opposite direction to that in which it once showed itself. Of old, entomologists knew one name only and held to it right or wrong: now they are never satisfied. If a name has been long and generally in use, it is all the more eligible, the writers seem to think, as a victim to the shrine of This restlessness is utterly absurd but the only cure for it is a good broad rule, that entomologists will henceforth ignore all names but those in use now.

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Second Edition, has been fully updated and revised to provide the latest information on developments in entomology relating to public health and veterinary importance. Each chapter is structured with the student in mind, organized by the major headings of Taxonomy, Morphology, Life History, Behavior and Ecology, Public Health and Veterinary Importance, and Prevention and Control. This second edition includes separate chapters devoted to each of the taxonomic groups of insects and arachnids of medical or veterinary concern, including spiders, scorpions, mites, and ticks. Internationally recognized editors Mullen and Durden include extensive coverage of both medical and veterinary entomological importance. This book is designed for teaching and research faculty in medical and veterinary schools that provide a course in vector borne diseases and medical entomology; parasitologists, entomologists, and government scientists responsible for oversight and monitoring of insect vector borne diseases; and medical and veterinary school libraries and libraries at institutions with strong programs in entomology. Follows in the tradition of Herm's Medical and Veterinary Entomology The latest information on developments in entomology relating to public health and veterinary importance Two separate indexes for enhanced searchability: Taxonomic and Subject New to this edition: Three new chapters Morphological Adaptations of Parasitic Arthropods Forensic Entomology Molecular Tools in Medical and Veterinary Entomology 1700 word glossary Appendix of Arthropod-Related Viruses of Medical-Veterinary Importance Numerous new full-color images, illustrations and maps throughout
