Excerpt from The Entomologist's Record and Journal of Variation, Vol. 21: January to December, 1909The success of the magazine and its position in the entomological world are now so assured that there is no need to point out the varied interests that are catered for. We have been able, thanks to various donors, to present our readers with another extensive series of illustra tions, and have no doubt that these have been fully appreciated by our subscribers. We have been fortunate in obtaining a rather larger share of papers relating to British entomology, and would urge our readers to continue to help us in this direction. Articles on field work are still, no doubt, most keenly appreciated, and add largely to our knowledge of distribution, whilst the notes relating to conti nental trips in pursuit of our favourite quarry, add largely to our knowledge of the general and local variation of many species well known to us at home.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
