Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Eighteenth Annual Meeting of the Association of Economic Entomologists: Issued September 22, 1906
I am sometimes asked to recommend a volume containing accounts of all the insects. If the and more known species from North America were described and the life history of each recorded it would fill not less than 150 volumes; and I have been compelled to refer my friends to such imperfect single volumes as we have, ex plaining, in apology, that our entomological literature IS scattered at present in numerous serials and in volumes relating to special groups of insects, and that no single volume contains more than a small fraction of acquired entomological lore.
