Excerpt from An Introduction to Entomology, Vol. 2 of 4: Or Elements of the Natural History of Insects

With respect to the duration of the societies of insects, some last only during their first or larva state; and are occasionally even restricted to its earliest period - some again only associate in their perfect or imago state; while with others, the proper societies for instance, the asso ciation is for life. But if I divide societies of insects into perfect and imperfect, it will, I think, enable me to give you a clearer and better view of the subject. By perfect societies I mean those that are associated in all their states, live in a common habitation, and unite their la bours to promote a common object - and by imperfect societies, those that are either associated during part of their existence only, or else do not dwell in a common habitation, nor unite their labours to promote a common object. In the present letter I shall confine myself to giving you some account of imperfect societies.

Excerpt from An Introduction to Entomology, Vol. 2 of 4: Or Elements of the Natural History of Insects

I see already, and I see it with pleasure, that you will not content yourself with being a mere collector of insects. To possess a cabinet well stored, and to know by what name each described individual which it contains should be distinguished, will not satisfy the love that is already grown strong in you for my favourite pursuit; and you now anticipate with a laudable eagerness, the discoveries that you may make respecting the history and economy of this most interesting department of the works of our Creator.
