Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Manual of North American Diptera The order of two-winged insects known as flies or Dip tera includes more than forty thousand known species from different regions of the world. Since many of the species are small, or even minute, and inconspicuous, and since the order as a whole has not received the at tention from collectors and students of entomology that other and more attractive groups have, it is very certain that many more await discovery. A very reasonable es timate would place the entire number of species of flies at present in existence at more than eighty thousand. From North America the recent catalogue of Aldrich gives a list of about eight thousand species, distributed in more than a thousand genera. The subject is a wide one and replete with interest.

Excerpt from Manual of the Families and Genera of North American Diptera Eight years ago the author of the present work published a small volume in which he attempted to tabulate the families and more important genera of the diptera of the United States. From the use that has been made of that work by entomological students, he has been encouraged to believe that the labor of its preparation was not in vain. The extra ordinary activity in the investigation of our dipterological fauna within the past few years has, however, largely destroy edits usefulness, and it is hoped that this new edition, or rather this new work, will prove as serviceable as has been the former one. In the present work there has been an at tempt to include all the genera now known from north of South America. Ivhile the Central and West Indian faunas are preeminently of the South American type, there are doubt less many forms occurring in the southern states that are at present known only from more southern regions.
