BY
MARY WELLMAN

If man were not the dominant animal in the world, this would be the Age of Insects. Outnumbering in kinds the members of all other groups
of animals combined, and showing a wealth of individuals and a degree of prolificness excelled only by the fishes among larger animals, and among
smaller animals by the Protozoa, the insects have an indisputable claim on the attention of students of natural history by sheer force of numbers. But
their claim to our interest rests on securer ground.

5. Beneficial insects (1922)  28 pages

PRINTED UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF HIS MAJESTY'S
STATIONERY OFFICE

In their relation to cultivated crops, insects may conveniently be divided into three groups, viz. :
Pests those which are harmful, causing by their depredations serious loss to the cultivator and a diminution
of the country's food supply; Neutral or negligible those which do not directly influence crop production ;
Beneficial those which by predaceous or parasitic habits diminish and keep in check the numbers of the
Pests.

" COMMON INSECTS," ETC.

ANIMAL and plant life are mutually dependent. Each has a starting point from a simple cell—''the structural
unit of the entire organized world." The zoologist and the botanist, ordinarily travelling in separate realms, seem to
meet on common ground while studying the lowest representatives
of their respective groups.

REPORT OF THE CANADIAN ARCTIC EXPEDITION 1913-18
VOLUME III: INSECTS
INTRODUCTION
LIST OF NEW GENERA AND SPECIES COLLECTED BY THE EXPEDITION
By C GORDON HEWITT

Our knowledge of the insect fauna of northern and arctic Canada has hitherto been so meagre, and our collections so lacking in material from that
region that the invitation given me in 1913 by the Deputy Minister of Mines to prepare a memorandum of instructions concerning the collection of insects
by the Canadian Arctic Expedition which was then being organized was more than welcome, and high hopes were entertained that a rich harvest would result.

12.  Insects, their ways and means of living (1930) 430 pages


By Robert Evans Snodgrass
United States Bureau of Entomology
VOLUME FIVE

In the early days of zoology there were naturalists who spent much time out of doors observing the ways of the
birds, the insects, and the other creatures of the fields and woods. These men were not steeped in technical learning.
Nature was a source of inspiration and a delight to them; her manifestations were to be taken for granted and not
questioned too closely.

13.  The physiognomy of insects. (1927)  37 pages

A" ENTOMOLOGIST no less interested in his fellow men than in the insects may with increasing years of observa tion find increasing resemblance between
the two some insects seeming almost human and some humans behaving very much like insects. This may be due in part to the fact if indeed it be a fact
that the entomologist may come to resemble the objects with which he is so constantly occupied. If we can trust the statements of some observers, he may
even take on some of the physical peculi arities of the group in which he specializes.

The Wonders of Instinct (1918) 162 pages , no illustrations


EXPERIMENT 1. The mole is fixed fore and aft, with a lashing of raphia, to a light
horizontal cross-bar resting on two forks. The Necrophori, after long tiring themselves in
digging under the body, end by severing the bonds.
EXPERIMENT 2. A dead mouse is placed on the branches of a tuft of thyme. By dint of
jerking, shaking and tugging at the body, the Burying-beetles succeed in extricating it
from the twigs and bringing it down.
