LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

U. 8. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE,

DIVISION OF ENTOMOLOGY, Washington, D. C., July 5, 1900.

SIR : I have the honor to transmit herewith the manuscript of a bul- letin for which there has been much demand among workers in ento- mology, and the publication of which I recommend under the title, Bulletin No. 24, new series, "A List of Works on North American Entomology."

Respectfully, L. O. HOWARD,

Entomologist. Hon. JAMES WILSON,

Secretary of Agriculture.

INTRODUCTORY NOTE.

In 1888 there was published under the Division of Entomology, as Bulletin No. 19, "An enumeration of the published synopses, cata- logues, and lists of North American insects," etc. This bulletin has served a very useful purpose in enabling a full answer to inquiries regarding the works most useful in the determination of our native insects and also regarding the most useful general works of reference. Since the publication of Bulletin No. 19, however, there has been very great activity in entomological work, and the bulletin is now well behind the times. Anyone who has ever taken up the study of ento- mology realizes the difficulty of securing a comprehensive review of the literature, even of a small group, while to secure publications which will enable him to determine the known species in most of the groups is more or less difficult. In fact, it is difficult to learn even the title of such papers and where to procure them. This latter diffi- culty will be solved by the present bulletin. Mr. Banks has not com- piled a complete bibliography of the literature of North American insects, but has given briefly the references to such works and papers as are most useful for the identification of our insects. The old list has been added to greatly, and in fact the number of papers cited is almost double that of the previous bulletin.

[NOTE. During the years 1864 to 1876, inclusive, the Department of Agriculture published regularly monthly reports, mainly statistical in their character (replaced since 1876 by the series of monthly "Crop Reports"), but which contained many short articles by the Entomologist, none of which would come within the scope of the present bulletin. Reference to these articles may be facilitated by consulting the "Synoptical Index of the Reports of the Statistician, 1863-1894" (Bui. No. 2, Division of Publications, Department of Agriculture). In like manner the "Index to the Annual Reports of the Department of Agriculture, 1837-1893" (Bui. No. 1 of the same series), maybe used to facilitate reference to the entomological reports, articles, and notes appearing in the Annual Reports of the Department.

HOW TO OBTAIN ENTOMOLOGICAL BOOKS AND PAMPHLETS.

Comparatively few of the works treating of the classification of North American insects have been published as separate books; but such as have been so published, if of comparatively recent date, can be obtained through the regular book trade. By far the greater number of the monographs and synopses mentioned in the preceding pages have been published in scientific periodicals and transactions of scientific, societies. These periodicals and transactions can be obtained through the societies which publish them and through the publishers; but, in the case of transactions, single volumes, and more especially single papers, are seldom sold, and the older volumes are liable to be out of print. Moreover, the expense attending the purchase of all of the periodicals containing the publications on a given order of insects will be so great as to put them beyond the reach of most entomologists. The custom of placing at the disposal of authors a number of separate copies of their papers overcomes this difficulty to some extent and creates a small supply. Thus it often happens that a person interested can obtain a copy of a scientific paper by addressing the author personally. Many of these separate copies also get into the possession of dealers in second hand books, and can be purchased from them. The American Entomological Society, Philadelphia, Pa., and also a few other societies here and in Europe offer for sale from their duplicates many of these authors' extras, and in some cases publish lists. There are, moreover, certain business establishments which make a specialty of the sale of works and pamphlets on natural history, including entomology, and it is chiefly through such establishments that the student is enabled to secure the larger portion of the works needed.

In Europe there are several of considerable reputation. All of those publishing catalogues of entomological books and pamphlets are included in the following list:

A not inconsiderable portion of the North American literature on the classification of insects has been published by the General Government through various channels, and foremost among them are the Smith- sonian Institution, the U. S. Department of Agriculture, the U. S. National Museum, the U. S. Geological and Geographical Survey, and the reports of the various surveys of the Territories. Many of these publications are distributed free of cost to anyone applying for them; while others, like certain of the Smithsonian publications, are sold at a moderate price to cover the cost of publication. Many of them are out of print, and can only be obtained through natural history book dealers.

The State reports of Lintner and Forbes can be obtained from the secretaries of the respective State agricultural societies at Albany, N. Y. , and Springfield, 111. , while the reports of the entomologists of the State experiment stations can be obtained from the directors of the respective stations. The older reports of the State entomologist of Missouri and the State entomologists of Illinois (Walsh, Le Baron, and Thomas) are all out of print and can only be obtained by purchase from secondhand dealers. The same may be said of the well-known and often quoted reports of Dr. Fitch, which were published with the old volumes of the Transactions of the New York State Agricultural Society.
