Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Order Coleoptera The list in this order has been very materially added to in many fami lies, and may be considered fairly accurate and complete. It has been critically looked over by a number of our best Coleopterists, and every questionable record has been verified, so far as it was possible to do so. Credit is given in all cases for work done in the various families, and in most instances the most recent American work has been followed. There has been no recent comprehensive work on this order in the United States, and the studies in other countries, which indicate a very radical change in the arrangement of the series, have not been generally understood and accepted here. Under the circumstances, I have deemed it best to attempt no change in the arrangement, a faunal list being no proper place to introduce a mooted or new classification.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs on the Coleoptera, Vol. 1 Another mistake frequently made, and a very serious one, is in assuming that nearly all exotic forms can be forced into the genera of purely European species. Some genera are common to Europe and America, but the isolation of the latter region since the middle Tertiary has sufficed for the evolution of many distinct types, so that at present there are a great many more endemic American genera than of those common to the two continents. The same remark applies as well to the species, the least resemblance between species of the two continents sufficing some superficial observers for a verdict of identity, which is false as a rule. There are some species common to America and Europe but not many, and they constitute an exceedingly small proportion of the whole number known; moreover virtually all such are likely to be cosmopolitan.

Download or read book Catalogue of the Coleoptera of America North of Mexico Classic Reprint written by Charles William Leng and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Coleoptera of America, North of Mexico The aim Of this catalogue is to enumerate systematically all the Species of Coleoptera described prior to January 1, 1919, which occur in America, north of Mexico, Greenland included; with consecutive numbers, synonyms, citation of original description, and an indication of distribution. An effort has been made to arrange the species in genera, tribes, families, superfamilies and series, in accordance with the most recent works on classification; an explanation of the difficulty of doing so in a satisfactory manner follows this preface. No attempt has been made to determine the validity of the numerous Specific names proposed by recent authors. Numbered names indicate species described and unquestioned in print. A letter, a, b, etc., following the numeral indicates variety, subspecies, race, etc. Names proposed by one author and disputed by another, are usually unnumbered, but are sometimes treated as varieties. Synonyms are always unnumbered, but the reader must guard against regarding unnumbered names as being invariably synonyms, for they often represent forms which, to their authors, seemed worthy of a name. The names of authors are usually abbreviated to the first three or four letters of their names; the few cases which are differently treated are explained below in the list of Signs and abbreviations used. Authors' names are usually in parenthesis if the species was originally described in a different genus; the correct placing of the parenthesis involved reference to many books and is not entirely complete. The citations are indicated by figures following the author's name; the first two are the final figures of the year in which the description was published; the remainder, separated by a hyphen, give the page on which the description occurs. In conjunction with the chrono logical list of each author's papers at the end of the book, the citation is thus given in the most condensed form possible. The distribution is indicated by the usual geographical abbreviations (explained below) for the localities given in original descriptions and in various faunal lists. Intermediate localities have Usually been omitted to save space, but particular care has been taken to include references to the extremities of the area covered, e. G., Newfoundland, Alaska.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs on the Coleoptera, Vol. 8: 1918 In almost every considerable collection of the Insecta, there are usually many unworked sections consisting principally of uniden tified material. This is especially true of those accumulated by students not having with them assistants to perform the more mechanical work relating to mounting and cleaning specimens and restoring such as may deteriorate through unfavorable conditions in the lapse of time. Among the unstudied sections of the writer's collection, none have been more discomforting than those com prising some subfamilies of the Carabidae, and the material at hand, though very extensive, has been thus far only partially identified and so comparatively useless. It was therefore with the idea of bringing some order out of chaos that the revisions of the present volume were drawn up, not however without many misgivings as to the attitude to be assumed by those having different conceptions regarding what should or should not be called species. These dif ferences of view will continue, however, so long as our knowledge remains imperfect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
