INTRODUCTION
The present index, prepared by Miss Mary J. Snyder, Secretary
to the Illinois State Laboratory of Natural History, is in continuation
of an index to the first twelve reports of the Illinois State Entomolo-
gist made in 1S85 and printed as an appendix to the Fourteenth Report
of this series. The systematic list of genera and species has been re-
vised by Mr. C A. Hart, who is responsible for the synonymy indi-
cated.
The twelve reports now indexed have all been issued by the pres-
ent writer, the first of these being the second of his personal series.
The thirteenth to the twentieth reports inclusive were published, like
the preceding six. as appendices to the Transactions of the State De-
partment oi Agriculture, a small edition of separates — usually two
hundred or three hundred copies — being furnished to the Entomologist
for his personal use. With the Twenty-first Report, however, a change
in the method of publication was made, the various articles of the
report being published first as bulletins of the State Agricultural Ex-
periment Station, one thousand copies of which were printed in form
for binding, from time to time, as a report of the State Entomologist.
With these were usually included some additional articles which had
not been separately issued, but which appeared in the state report only.
ldie Thirteenth Report, printed in 1884 with the twenty-first vol-
ume oi the Transactions of the State Department of Agriculture, was
devoted mainly to the discussion of insects injurious to the strawberry.
but contains, among other miscellaneous articles, one on insects affect-
ing sorghum and broom-corn, and two articles on insects injurious to
the wheat plant.
ddie Fourteenth Report I Agricultural Transactions, Vol. XXII.,
1SS5 I is of a miscellaneous character, containing articles on both agri-
cultural and horticultural insects, among the former a first contribu-
tion to a knowledge of the life history and parasites of the Hessian
fly, and a contribution to the life history of the corn root-aphis. It
also contains an index to the first twelve reports oi the office series.
The Fifteenth of the series (Vol. XXI Y. of the Transactions,
1889) consists mainly of a report of experiments with arsenical poi-
sons for the destruction of the codling-moth and plum-curculio in
apple orchards, a second contribution on the Hessian fly, the life history
6
of the wheat bulb-worm, and a discussion of certain insects injurious
to nurserj trees.
Number sixteen of the series was published in 1890 in Volume
XXVI. of the Agricultural Transactions. Its mot important articles
arc one on the chinch-bug, largely devoted to a statistical study of its
relations to the raising of wheat: one on the corn hill-hugs; and one
on the cutworms.
The main articles oi the Seventeenth Report (Agricultural Trans-
actions, Vol. XX\ 111.. 1891) are on the fruit-tree bark-beetle, on ex-
periments with arsenical poisons for the plum-curculio, on the common
white-grubs, on the life histories of the Hessian fly and of the corn
root-aphis, and on the fungous diseases oi the chinch-hug. It contains,
as an appendix, an analytical list oi the entomological writings oi Dr.
William LeBaron, the second State Entomologist of Illinois.
The Eighteenth Report | Agricultural Transactions. Vol. XXXI..
L894) is almost entirely devoted to a monograph ot" insect injuries to
Indian corn affecting the seed in the earth and the underground part
^i the plant.
The Nineteenth Reporl I Agricultural Transactions, Vol. XXXI 1..
1895) is mainly devoted to an elaborate discussion of the contagious
diseases oi the chinch-hug. with an analytical list oi American article-
on this subject. It contains likewise an article on the white ant in
Illinois, and another on the Mediterranean flour-moth, the latter (by
\\ G Johnson, an assistant in the office) printed as an appendix to
the regular report.
In number twenty (Agricultural Transactions. Vol. XXXIV.,
18 s i- an article on the San lose scale in Illinois, one descriptive of
an extraordinary outbreak oi white-grubs in Christian county, and
others on various aspects oi the chinch-hug problem. An article on
the white pine Chermes, bj E. 1 . Storment, is printed as an appendix
to this report.
The Twenty-first Report contains two articles— one on the San
.ale: and the other a monographic article on the economic en-
tomology oi the sugar-beet. These were also separately issued as
bulletins 56 and 60 of the Agricultural Experiment Station.
In the Twenty-second Report, issued in 1903, the principal article-
are on the corn hill-hugs in Illinois, on field insecticide work against
[bs< scale, and on the principal nursery pests likely to he dis-
tributed in trade. The first two articles were printed in 1902 as bul-
letins 79 and SO of the Experiment Station, and that on nursery pe<ts
ssued bv the same station in 1°01 as Circular 36. Additional
articles on the use of crude petroleum and pure kerosene for the San
lose scale, on experiments with summer washes for the same insect.
on the canker-worm on shade and forest trees, and on the Colaspis
root-worm, were first published in this ceport.
The Twenty-third Report, printed in 1905, is devoted entirely
to injuries to Indian corn by insect species which infest the plant
above ground. An abstract oi the more important parts oi this vol-
ume was isstied in 1904 as Bulletin 95 oi the Experiment Station.
The articles of the Twenty-fourth Report, printed in 1908, are of
a somewhat miscellaneous character, devoted mainly to the bill-bugs,
the corn root-aphis, and the chinch-bug, treated with special reference
to their injuries to corn: to the cottony maple scale and the elm twig-
girdler, treated as shade-tree insects; to experiments with insecticides
for the San Jose scale and the plnm-cnrcnlio ; and to the life history.
habits, and economic relations of the white-grubs and May-beetles.
With the exception oi that on the elm twig-girdler, published for the
first time in the report, these articles have been previously printed as
bulletins of the Experiment Station series— Nos. 104. 107. 108. 112.
and 116.
In addition to the twelve regular reports here named, the partial
equivalent of such a report was printed in ISSo. under the name of
"Miscellaneous Essays on Economic Entomology," as an appendix to
the twenty-third volume of the State Department of Agriculture, the
principal articles in which are "The Entomological Record for 1885;"
"Experiments on the Codling-moth and Curculios :" "A Second Con-
tribution to the Life History oi the Corn Plant-louse (Aphis maidis
Fitch)" [mainly the corn root-aphis] ; "On the Injurious Locusts of
Central Illinois;" and a "Partial Bibliography of Indian Corn In-
sects." ddie contents of these essays are included in the following
index.
The twelve reports, with their appendices, contain 2469 pages, of
which 2213 are the text of the articles, the remainder consisting of in-
dexes, tables of contents, and similar matter. These reports are illus-
trated by 387 cuts inserted in the text, and by 127 plates. 15 of which
are colored and the remainder black and white.
