This book was released on 2011-09-19 with total page 1326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Royal Entomological Society (RES) and Wiley-Blackwell are proud to present this landmark publication, celebrating the wonderful diversity of the insects of the British Isles, and the work of the RES (founded 1833). This book is the only modern systematic account of all 558 families of British insects, covering not just the large and familiar groups that are included in popular books, but even the smallest and least known. It is beautifully illustrated throughout in full colour with photographs by experienced wildlife photographers to show the range of diversity, both morphological and behavioural, among the 24,000 species. All of the 6,000 genera of British insects are listed and indexed, along with all the family names and higher groups. There is a summary of the classification, biology and economic importance of each family together with further references for detailed identification. All species currently subject to legal protection in the United Kingdom are also listed. The Royal Entomological Society is one of the oldest and most prestigious of its kind in the world. It is the leading organisation for professional entomologists and its main aim has always been the promotion of knowledge about insects. The RES began its famous Handbooks for the Identification of British Insects in 1949, and new works in that series continue to be published. The Royal Entomological Society Book of British Insects has been produced to demonstrate the on-going commitment of the RES to educate and encourage each generation to study these fascinating creatures. This is a key reference work for serious students of entomology and amateur entomologists, as well as for professionals who need a comprehensive source of information about the insect groups of the British Isles they may be less familiar with.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrations of British Entomology, or a Synopsis of Indigenous Insects, Vol. 4: Containing Their Generic and Specific Distinctions; With an Account of Their Metamorphoses, Times of Appearance, Localities, Food, and Economy, as Far as Practicable; Mandibulata This extraordinary and natural family of insects is no less distinguished by the, singularity of the rostriform anterior portion of the head - the mouth being placed at the apex - than by the amazing number of species which it embraces: the latter present very remarkable forms and striking variety of colours; the last, in some instances, outvying the most splendid hues found in any other department of nature; this splendour is produced by small scales, which are scattered over the body, but which are very readily abraded: the indigenous Species are generally small, but notwithstanding their minuteness several of them, as hereafter men tioned, are extremely destructive to grain and other articles of human consumption: they are timid, and when approached contract their antennae and legs, and fall from their position, or, in cases where they are provided with saltatorial hinder femora, leap to a distance; they fly but seldom, and many of them have the elytra soldered together and are destitute of wings - they all subsist upon vegetables, and there is consequently considerable diversity in their food: in form their larvae are somewhat elongate, linear, with the extremities acute with the head scaly, and the body furnished with tubercular projections in lieu of legs; their food varies considerably.
