Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from British Insects and How to Know Them The aim of this little book is to provide a popular introduction to the study of British insects. It has been penned more from the standpoint of the naturalist, whose interest lies with the structure and habits of living things, than of the systematist, whose chief object is to discover and record their interrelationships. But the naturalist cannot hope to advance far in his pursuit without a "working knowledge" of classification to guide him. Therefore an attempt has been made to indicate the chief reasons why insects are separated by men of [science into groups - orders, families, genera, etc. The "outline classification" printed on page 120 is adopted from Professor G. H. Carpenter, whose articles in the current edition of the "Encyclopædia Britannica," and whose work, "Insects: their Structure and Life," may be consulted with advantage by the serious student Dr. David Sharp´s two volumes on "Insects" (which form a part of "The Cambridge Natural History") should also be read and reread.
