Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Entomologist's d104 Book: An Introduction to the Natural History, Structure, Physiology and Classification of Insects, Including the Crustacea and Arachnida
In te-publishing these various articles, I have met with one difficulty, for which I hope due allowance will be made by the reader. In an Encyclopaedia, the most ample, and generally the most interesting details, are confined to those articles treating of genera and species, to which constant reference is made for the illustration of the more general articles. I have endeavoured, in some degree, to make up for this deficiency, by the introduction of the various orders of insects.
