Download or read book The Royal Entomological Society Book of British Insects written by Peter C. Barnard and published by John Wiley & Sons. 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Common British Insects: Selected From the Typical Beetles, Moths, and Butterflies of Great Britain There is scarcely a branch of science, however interesting it may be, which does not at first repel the intending student by the array of strange words with which the treasures of knowledge are surrounded. This is especially the case in Botany and Zoology, which contain, in addition to the usual technical language, vast numbers of names belonging to various plants or animals, each name consisting of two words, one denoting the genus and the other the species. In the following pages I intend to describe, as far as possible within so limited a space, the butter ies moths, and beetles of Great Britain, and, though giving the needful scientific information, to use few technical terms, and always to explain those which of necessity must be employed. Our first business is evidently, when treating of these insects, to define precisely what an insect is. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Know the Insects: An Illustrated Key to the More Common Families of Insects, With Suggestions for Collecting, Mounting and Studying Them This book is designed to make it easy to acquire a ready knowledge of the insects. It is closely applicable throughout North America and should be helpful wherever insects are studied. Illustrated keys for identifications of the orders and of the principal families are given. One common representative of each included family is pictured and briefly described. In all, 196 species of common insects are thus treated. It should be borne in mind that for each species pictured, there are many others which space does, not permit us to show; When a specimen is seen to closely resemble one that is pictured, it will likely be found to belong to the same family. If it differs in some details it probably represents a species not herein described and will need to be referred to more complete literature or to a specialist.

Download or read book A Handbook of British Mosquitoes Classic Reprint written by William Dickson Lang and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-04 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook of British Mosquitoes Owing to the important part played by mosquitoes of certain species in the communication of disease, an increased amount of attention has been given to the study of these insects in recent years. But if the study of any particular species of insect, no matter from what point of view, be it purely scientific or altogether practical, is to be of real value, it is essential that the species should be exactly identified. Twenty-one different Species of mosquitoes have been found to occur in the British Islands and it is by no means easy to distinguish every one of these species from all the rest. It is hoped that this Handbook, prepared with that end in view, will make it possible for the student to identify all the British species without much difficulty, and not only in their adult stage as flies, but. So far as present knowledge of them will permit, in their larval and pupal stages as well. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
