Excerpt from Recent Advances in Entomology IN preparing a second edition of this book two reasons have led to the decision to confine its scope within the original limits. Firstly, in any attempt to discuss recent advances in entomology, at all exhaustively, several volumes, each the size of the present one, would be needed. Even to include adequate extra chapters the size of the book would need to be increased a good deal beyond its prescribed limits. Secondly, those other aspects of entomology that commend themselves for inclusion are, to a large extent, provided for elsewhere. In this connection, insect physiology, insects and climate, general morphology, insects and plant viruses, for example, have already formed the subjects of recent books or monographs. The writers of these several books have discussed such subjects far more adequately than could be expressed within the limits of single chapters. Certain aspects of entomology, naturally, have required more revision than others. Under morphology, while current Views on Wing Venation have undergone but little change, Head Segmentation and the Genitalia have needed considerable revision. Also, recent studies of the musculature have led to revision of views respecting the homologies of certain of the appendages and their parts. As regards Metamorphosis, discoveries in regard to the presence of hormones are discussed. Palaeontology has developed so rapidly as to require very full revision of the original chapter: several new illustrations, taken from recent papers by Dr. F. M. Carpenter, have been included in this chapter with the author's permission. In dealing with the Sense Organs the subject of response to visual stimuli has been extended so as to include the results of a good deal of recent investigation. In this connection valuable help has been given by Dr. M. Hertz, which is here gratefully acknowledged. The subject of Stimulatory Organs has also been included. With regard to Biological Races.

seem as appropriate now as the original balance was when Dr A. D. Imms' textbook was first published over fifty years ago. There are 35 new figures, all based on published illustrations, the sources of which are acknowledged in the captions. We are grateful to the authors concerned and also to Miss K. Priest of Messrs Chapman & Hall, who saved us from many errors and omissions, and to Mrs R. G. Davies for substantial help in preparing the bibliographies and checking references. London O. W. R. R. G. D. May 1976 Part III THEORDERSOFINSECTS THE CLASSIFICATION AND PHYLOGENY OF INSECTS The classification of insects has passed through many changes and with the growth of detailed knowledge an increasing number of orders has come to be recognized. Handlirsch (1908) and Wilson and Doner (1937) have reviewed the earlier attempts at classification, among which the schemes of Brauer (1885), Sharp (1899) and Borner (1904) did much to define the more distinctive recent orders. In 1908 Handlirsch published a more revolutionary system, incorporating recent and fossil forms, which gave the Collembola, Thysanura and Diplura the status of three independent Arthropodan classes and considered as separate orders such groups as the Sialoidea, Raphidioidea, Heteroptera and Homoptera. He also split up the old order Orthoptera, gave its components ordinal rank and regrouped them with some of the other orders into a subclass Orthopteroidea and another subclass Blattaeformia.

This text book aims at to provide an up to date, general and applied account of Entomology which is written in a simple and lucid language keeping in view the syllabi of Entomology in M.Sc. Zoology & M.Sc. (Ag.) of various Indian Universities. The book will also be useful to those who are preparing for competitive examinations conducted by various central & state Government agencies for recruitment. The book is equally useful to those dealing with pests and pest control. It is hoped the book will be useful not only to students but also to agriculturist, horticulturist, foresters, veterinary and clinical doctors and laymen dealing with pest control.

Keeping the requirements of teachers and researchers in mind, this encyclopedic dictionary presents the terminology in entomology and pest management in the most authentic and comprehensive way. It also includes terms related to the close relatives of insects, such as mites and ticks and some other organisms which are pests of crops.
