IN reply to the request of L. C. M. in your issue of August 3. the following references may be of interest to him. “Insect Architecture,” Charles Knight and Co., Ludgate Street, 1845, contains a chapter upon systematic arrangement of insects, which contains the following:—Aristotle's, Linnæus's, De Geer's, Aldrovand's, Vallisnieri's, Fabricius's, Latrielle's, Swammerdam's, Ray and Willugrhby's, Cuvier's, Lamarck's, Sir Everard Home's, Clairville's, Leach's, Stephen's, and McLeav's classifications. Hoping this may be of use.
