Reseña del editor
Volume owes its existence to a desire on the part of the Publisher of theB ritish Cyclopaedia of Natural History, that the leading Entomological articles which appeared in that work from my pen should be collected, so as to form a general sketch of the outlines of the science to which they relate. The object of that work was essentially popular, and it was written more especially for the general reader. It was necessary, therefore, not only that the various articles should bdivested, as much as possible, of technicality, but also that the attention of the reader should be constantly directed to the uses of organs of which the descriptions were laid before him; thus not only imparting to the subject a greater degree of interest, than though bare descriptions and technicalities had been given; but, which was of far higher importance, proving that in all the various formations exhibited by these tribes of animals, an A ll-wise Creator had bestowed those various structures for the performance, in the most satisfactory manner, of their different functions. In re-publishing these various articles, I have met with one difficulty, for which I hope due allowance will be made by the reader. In anE ncyclopaedia, 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.
