DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, DIVISION OF ENTOMOLOGY, Washington, D. 0., June 12, 1889. SIR : In the absence of Professor Riley, who is now at the Paris Ex- position in official capacity, I beg to submit for publication Parts I, II, and III of the Bibliography of American Economic Entomology, which was ordered by Congress in July, 1882. Owing to various unforeseen delays this work has not yet been completed. Its preparation was originally assigned by Professor Riley to Mr. B. Pickman Mann, formerly of this Division, and upon the severance of his connection with the Depart- ment, in the fall of 1885, it was turned over in an incomplete and frag- mentary condition to Mr. Samuel Henshaw, of Boston, who has added greatly to it and practically rewritten the portions already prepared. The extent of the work renders it advisable to publish it in several parts, and as there is unquestionably a more urgent need on the part of working economic entomologists for a bibliography of the writings of B. D. Walsh and C. Y. Riley than of others, on account of their great number and value, these portions have been finished first. Their imme- diate publication will probably antecede the publication of the final part only by a few months. Very respectfully, yours, L. O. HOWARD, Acting Entomologist. Hon. J. M. RUSK, Secretary of Agriculture. TABLE OF CONTENTS TO PARTS I, II, AND III. Page. Introduction , 7 The writings of B. D. Walsh (1860-1873) 9 The joiut writings of B. D. Walsh and C. V.

Few will be likely to criticize the association of the names of Walsh and Eiley in a list of this kind, so largely devoted to economic entomology, or to question the desirability of collating their writings in advance of others. As recognized authorities upon entomology, especially from an economic standpoint, their writings have been extensively quoted sometimes with, but frequently without, credit in the agricultural and horticultural journals of the day. These secondary references, though of a certain value when the original is inaccessible, have, as a rule, been omitted. In citing such as are given I have used my personal judgment. To have given all would h^ive increased the size of the list considerably with but a slight increase in its usefulness. Occasionally, a publisher to meet some popular demand puts the writings of an author into book form without the knowledge of the latter. Such an occurrence has happened more than once with Dr. Eiley's writings. To mention but one : In 1877 Messrs. Gteorge Eut- ledge & Sons, of London, published " The Colorado beetle, with sug- gestions for its repression and methods of destruction," with Dr. Eiley's name upon the title-page as author. This is a partial reprint of Potato Pests entirely unsanctioned and published without knowledge of the au- thor. (See London Times, October 17, 1887.) These publishers' re- prints are omitted from this list. The " S.-b." after the reference of many of the articles from the agricultural and other journals refers to the series of scrap-books-used in divisional work. A biographical sketch of Dr. Walsh is given in the second volume of the American Entomologist, Vol. II, No. 3, pp. 65-68, January, 1870. The chief facts in Dr. Eiley's life may be found in the " Common- wealth of Missouri " (1875) and the National Farmer, September 20, 1883. In the preparation of the list I have freely used all data accumulated by the Division, notably the work of Mr. B. P. Mann and a private list of Dr. Eiley's. Many persons, both within and without the Department, have kindly answered my inquiries. — S. H. 7 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE MORE IMPORTANT CONTRIBUTIONS TO AMERICAN ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY. THE WRITINGS OF B.
