A BIBLIOGRAPHY Of^TOSSIL INSECTS.

BY SAMUEL H. SCUDDER.

Up to the present time, scarcely any formal attempt has been made to collect separately the titles of papers on fossil insects.
Several authors, in general essays on this branch cf palaeontology, have, indeed, referred to the older or the principal workt
upon the subject, as Giebel in his Insecten der vorwelt, Oustalet in his first essay on the fossil insects of France, and lately,
and more particularly, Goss in his review of our knowledge of fossil insects. The principal sources of our information, how-
ever, have been portions of the scientific bibliographies of zoology ; thus Carus and Engelmann, in iSGt, in tlieir Bibliotheca
zoologica ( 1 1. i soS-io), give two pages and a half to this subject with about sixty titles ; while Hagen. a year or two later, by
means of the subject- index to his Bibliotheca entomologica refers to about one hutuired and fifty articles, scattered throughout
his work.

The following list was originally made for private use, to accompany a. slip catalogue of the described fossil insects of the
world, prepared for comparing the ancient insect fauna with the modern, and that of tke Old World with tliat of the New.
Thinking it of more thtin private value, the entries have been accompanied by brief descriptive notes, and are here published as a
tolerably complete list, and one that will at least suggest the extent and to some degree the nature of tlie literature upon this sub-
ject. Although more than double the extent of H agents list (which did not include Arachnida and Myriapoda*) this is no proof
of an inereased development of or interest in this branch of scientific work within the past fifteen years ; indeed, it is doubtful
•whether there is now as much activity as in the previous fifteen years when the works of Heer were opening the "wealth of mate-
rial at hand. The multiplication of periodical literature of late years has brought in its train a host of minor papers, many of
them wholly popular in character, which, while they multiply titles, do not materially add to our actual knowledge. All of these
the careful bibliographer must notice, and these have unfortunately enhanced the labor of preparing, and increased the exttnt
of this list, without corresponding advantage.

A II papers hert quoted have been personally examined unless noted to the contrary ; and, with rare exceptions, will be
found in the libraries of this vicinity. Although not properly belonging here, I have added references to articles treating of
insects in copal. The arrangement under the authors is chronological.

Additions to this bibliography would be very welcome, and will be inserted in an appendix.

palaeontology of Schosznitz with full descriptions of ten species
of insects. The second describes two Coleoptera. I have only
seen the separate edition.

The first mention of a palaeozoic insect. It is said to have
been shown by Audouin at the meeting of the Association of
German naturalists at Bonn in 1835, but I have been unable to
examine the report of that meeting. Also mentioned by Boue1 in

1875.

Describes and discusses the affinities of two fossil insects
which he considers orthopterous ; and of a third which he com-
pares to a carboniferous Termes. Breyer considers one of the
first wings as lepidopterous.

de Borre, A. P. Complement de la note sur des

11-12). 8°. Bruxelles. 1875.

Now maintains the correctness of Breyer's belief that one of
the wings is lepidopterous. or prolepidopterous, and changes the

fjneric name from Pachytylopsis, formerly given, to Breyeria.
plogne and Lafontaine contend that there are two overlapping
wings. Plateau at first thought it the tip of a coleopterous wing
of gigantic size, but withdrew his opinion. Breyer maintained
the latter view impossible, and de Selys thought it rash to refer a
reticulated wing to the Lepidoptera. These two papers, with-
out the discussion, were republished separately as follows : —

a particular account of the strata in which they oc-

preservation. 8°. London. 1845. PP-f1^) 130, pi. n.

The introductory observations, explanation of plates, notes,
and many names, are by Westwood. This, the only separate
work on fossil insects published in England, is still the chief
source of pur too inexact knowledge of the liassic and other
secondary insects of that country. The body of the work, Mr.
Brodie's part, is divided into four chapters, of which the first
deals with the wealden, the second with the oolite, the third
with the lias, and the fourth with miscellaneous matter, including
insects of continental strata.

author's own additions to the carboniferous fauna since it was
issued. These and others appear in the second part, where the
insects occupy pp. 8-34 and pi. i. The order Palaeodictyoptera
is here instituted for the Dictyoptera (nom. praeocc. ) of Dohrn.
The number of species treated is twenty-seven, not however
all confined to Saarbriick ; this brings the number of Saarbriick
insects as given in the catalogue, pp. 50-51, to thirty-eight, and
renders this work the most important contribution to palaeozoic
entomology that has ever appeared. A nominal list of 76 fossil
cockroaches, based on that of Heer, is given on pp. 19-2*. A

These three papers contain a careful review of the literature
of fossil insects ; each geological formation is separately treated,
containing references to all the genera, and in very many cases
to the species found in it, with full bibliographical references.
It will be found very useful to the general student.

This series of papers covers much the same ground as the
preceding series of three ; but the formations are followed in an
ascending order, and the progress of insect life at each epoch is
compared to that of other contemporary animals and plants. The
lists of the other series are omitted, and the references to insects
are mostly by genera.

. This classical work is the most important ever published upon
fossil insects, and may be called the first serious attempt at the
classification of the tertiary species. Most of the material came
from Oeningen and Radoboj, but it included all the author could
examine from Aix and other localities. 462 species are described
and figured, divided as follows: 119 Coleoptera, 39 Gymnogna-
tha, 3 Neuroptera, 80 Hymenoptera, 9 Lepidoptera, 80 Diptera,
and 133 Hemiptera. There are very few general observations,
but attention should be called to an important excursus on the
arrangement of the veins in the wings of insects and the elytra
of Coleoptera, in the first part, pp. 76-95.

The fossil ants of Oeningen and Radoboj are winged and
either <3 or 9 , neuters being rarely preserved ; three fourths are
females. The individuals are very abundant and are preserved
in large assemblages, and many species in close contiguity ;
most of them are Kormicidae, and they form the best data for
comparison of the Oeningen and Radoboj faunas.

species described in the third part of his Tertiary insects. They
agree better with the insects of the Southern zone than with
those of Switzerland, and the Capsini and Riparii characteristic
of temperate regions are wholly absent.

nection of Radoboj with Aix than with Oeningen.

original) upon the tertiary insects and the testimony they bear
to the tropical and American nature of the time in which they
lived. Another paragraph on pp. 60-61 (260-261) shows how
the condition of preservation of insects indicates the season of
their entombment.

In an introduction of five pages, some general results of the
study of Oeningen Coleoptera are tabulated, the most interesting
of which appear to be that the fauna is more European in charac-
ter than the flora and less rich in American forms ; and that
many species are related to those which now enjoy a wide distri-
bution.

Under the head of diluvial deposits, he refers, p. 501, to a bed
of peat in the parish of Kirk Balaff, " containing a vast number
of the exuviae of beetles, bees and their nests, crushed together
with seed vessels, rotten, but having their external coating well
preserved. ... In general the hard wings are the only parts of
the beetles which are preserved, and these are in appearance as
fresh as on a living insect. Dr. Leach was enabled to identify a
few with species at present existing in England."

of the Diptera of the Prussian amber, of which at this time 850
species were known to the author, and of which over 650, belong-
ing to 101 genera, had been satisfactorily determined. -These
insects belong to a single district fauna, and represent only a
fragment of that, viz. : those low flying Diptera which love
moist places sheltered from the wind. The generic types which
existed in the amber period have probably been preserved down
to our time. Of all living types North American Diptera, es-
pecially those found from lat. 32° to 40° most nearly resemble
the amber fauna ; next to l£ese, those of Europe.

man. The insects are catalogued on pp. 68, 81-82 and figured
on pi. 4, S, 9. Reference is also incidentally made in several
places to the insect beds of the district, but without special men-
tion of their contents.

Studied descriptions of forty-five species, most of them new ;
they are mostly Diptera, especially Protomyiae and Bibiones,
and Coleoptera, especially Rhynchophora. The characteristics of
the groups to which the insects belong are given in detail, and
references made to other fossil insects of the same groups. The
whole is preceded by a chapter of 48 pages, containing a good
history of our knowledge of fossil insects, and is followed by
one of 17 pages of general results reached by a study of the
Auvergne fossil insects, which are found to show a mingling of
indigenous and of exotic forms, a Mediterranean aud American
aspect, and a warmer climate than now.

scorpion . . . Myrmecitis presents the appearance of an ant
crawling within, and cantharias of a scarabaeus."

The first attempt to classify any group of paleozoic insects of
both worlds by characters drawn from the venation of the wing.
More than sixty species (thirteen of them new) are described
and figured ; they are divided into two tribes and eleven genera,
and separated as a whole from modern cockroaches under the
name Palaeoblattariae. .See also Geinitz, F. E.

The only two hexapods hitherto known (excepting a cockroach)
are Neuroptera and not Orthoptera as had been recently main-
tained. Two new species are described, Archaeoptilus ingens,
the largest paleozoic insect known, and Brodia priscotincta. re-
markable for the preservation of the colored bands of the wing.

paleontological portion is mainly devoted to insects and plants,
of which a running systematic review is given. The conclusion
is reached that the beds, the most prolific of insects in the world,
" belong in or near the oligocene." An abstract will be found in

The translation, which is by Dr Hagen, omits only about a
page of unimportant matter in the concluding notes. It is em-
bodied in an article by Dr. Berendt, entitled Ueber eine von Dr.
G. Troost in Baltimore im jahre 1821 im American-journal of
science gegebene beschreibung eines bernstein-vorkommens bei
Cap Sable in Maryland ; and is preceded and followed by re-
marks of Dr. Berendt which, however, do not refer to the insect-

nests.

Not seen ; an abstract will be found in Neuttjahrb. miner.,
1840:374-377. 8°. Stuttgart. 1840. Insects are mentioned on p.

377! there are no Coleoptera nor Lepidoptera; Diptera and
Hymenoptera are most abundant ; Neuroptera, Orthoptera and
Hemiptera rarer. A single spider was found. The fauna is
tropical rather than European.

The Reise notizen are referred to in no bibliographies. They
appeared separately for 1838 and 1839, a"d were probably ex-
tracts from some local paper. Cf. Neues jakrb. mineral.,

have been published during the two years of its passage through the press, but also all contributions to the literature of fossil
insects of -which only incomplete memoranda could be obtained, through allusions to them in the works of others. Diligent
search has been made for the early literature of the subject, and especially of amber insects. Perhaps not one half the works or
papers concerning amber referred to in bibliographies have been procurable in this country, and of those seen comparatively
few contain references to insect-enclosures. The scattered allusions to amber insects taken from older authors and published
later than the seventeenth century have in general been left unnoticed, as wholly valueless and uninteresting ; but ail others,
where possible, have been introduced into the list in a more or less perfect form. The best notice of the early literature of amber
will be found in Boehmer's'BAA.. script, hist, nat., 4, i: 468-477. 8°. Lipsiae. 1788. The few papers concerning the relationship
of the Merostomata and A rachnida have also betn introduced into this appendix, but the extensive literature of the Merostomata
generally has not been added, as it should be, were the views of Van Beneden and Lankester to prove correct.

I am much indebted to many correspondents, but especially to Dr. H. A . Hagen, for assistance in preparing this bibliog-
raphy, which will certainly strike even those well acquainted with the subject as unexpectedly extensive. More than four hun-
dred authors are represented as having concerned themselves more or less with fossil insects. — S. H. S-

Limulus that it presents the greatest analogy to that of scor-

and form, with the Scorpiomda and the other Arachnida, a dis-
tinct branch, the origin of which has still to be ascertained."

Dr. Hagen has called my attention to this reference as perhaps
the earliest mention of insects in amber. The same reference is

<,% Ami Bone is said to have been the first (Journ. geol., 3 :
105) to have referred to the insects of Radoboj, but I have been
unable to verify the reference ; and John Ray is stated to have
made some references to fossil insects on pp. 78 and 92 of his
Historia insectorum ; but I have examined the work for such
references unsuccessfully.

#% Among the papers on fossil insects known to me to be
shortly forthcoming are the following : By Dr. H. A. Hagen
upon the Psocina of the amber, with a folding plate, in the Stett.
entom- zeit. ; by Mr. B. N. Peach, an illustrated memoir on
the recently-discovered scorpions of the carboniferous rocks of
Scotland, in the Trans- royal, soc. Edinb. ; and by myself illus-
trated papers on the carboniferous hexapods of Great Britain,
. and on two new types of carboniferous myriapods from Mazon
Creek, in the Memoirs Bost. soc. nat. hist. ; an extract from the
last, discussing the affinities of Palaeocampa, will appear in the
Amer.journ. sc.
