This book was released on 1972 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, a review of the Chrysomelinae of the United State and Canada, includes a checklist and compilation of keys to the 136 species. One new species, Leptinotarsa collinsi, is described. This is one of the larger subfamilies with about 3,000 species represented in all areas of the world. The North American species are here grouped into seve tribes, athough Entomolscelini, Prasocurini, and Pharatorini are of doubtful validity. I follw crowson and arnett in using the subfamily name Chrysomelinae in the broad sense, equal in rank to Chriocerinae and Eumolpinae which I leave in Chrysomelidae.
