Not illustrated. 1919 edition. Excerpt: ... the world would hear, and-so revolting a denunciatory revelation of horrors that legislatures would at last effectively denounce, condemn and authoritatively prohibit vivisection. Simply because the cat VVILDLINGS OF THE COl'VE.'T WOOD. It is well occasionally to extricate oneself from the artificial conditions of town or city life and spend a few weeks in the country, a few days in the wood. There is still the dim solemn forest--not the Teutoberger Vald exactly--but still the forest, with tall oaks and ashes and maples towering above and down--intertwining with lindens, locusts, elms; thence with sumachs, underbrush and long dark grasses. And thro' all--in sighing thro' the grasses, in soughing thro' sumachs and birches, in long swish-swash spray-play thro' the towering trecs--revel the rain-fraught winds. How variously the_diPferent trees yield themselves to the storm! Gracefully, awkwardly: jestingly, hugely enjoying the horse-play--resistantly, indignant, defiant: cuddlingly, turning up silvery-protective underleaves, pleading woman-like in loveliness with the god of the storm; somber, unsoliciting, unlovely, unloved: different, distinct, individual as human hearts under the stormy sorrows of the years. are the trees under the revel of rain-fraught winds. the downpour, the good full fury of the storm. And all the little creatures of the convent wood----how they cuddle down, how still they wait! True to their own, tho', thro' all; mother-bird swaying with swaying nest--silently; flickers at home in the hollow trunk lit by the lightning; rabbits under the log. fast breathing, alert, distressed---ready to leap with their young to some upper-log Ararat, safe from the deluge: chipmunks...

Blood-sucking insects are the vectors of many of the most debilitating parasites of man and his domesticated animals. In addition they are of considerable direct cost to the agricultural industry through losses in milk and meat yields, and through damage to hides and wool, etc. So, not surprisingly, many books of medical and veterinary entomology have been written. Most of these texts are organized taxonomically giving the details of the life-cycles, bionomics, relationship to disease and economic importance of each of the insect groups in turn. I have taken a different approach. This book is topic led and aims to discuss the biological themes which are common in the lives of blood-sucking insects. To do this I have concentrated on those aspects of the biology of these fascinating insects which have been clearly modified in some way to suit the blood-sucking habit. For example, I have discussed feeding and digestion in some detail because feeding on blood presents insects with special problems, but I have not discussed respiration because it is not affected in any particular way by haematophagy. Naturally there is a subjective element in the choice of topics for discussion and the weight given to each. I hope that I have not let my enthusiasm for particular subjects get the better of me on too many occasions and that the subject material achieves an overall balance.

This bulletin, based on contributions from various contributors and edited by Dr. D.W. Roubik, introduces the reader to various aspects of natural and insect pollination. It discusses the pollinators themselves, and the ecological and economic importance of pollination, as well as applied pollination in temperate, tropical oceanic islands and mainland tropics, and alternatives to artificial pollinator populations. Prospects for the future are also discussed. Chapter 2 deals with successful pollination with pollinator populations, the evaluation of pollinators and floral biology and research techniques. The behaviour of pollinators and plant phenology and various case studies on the preparation of pollinators for use in tropical agriculture are also discussed. A glossary and various appendices regarding cultivated and semi-cultivated plants in the tropics, pollination contracts and levels of safety of pesticides for bees and other pollinators are included.
