Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Butterflies and Moths (British) The favourable reception with which the 'Out-door World' has been greeted has encouraged the publishers to issue a series of volumes dealing in fuller detail with the various branches of Natural History treated of in that work. Necessarily each subject was only briefly touched upon, but the study is of so enticing a character that 'appetite grows by feeding, ' and the students of the 'Out-door World, ' having tasted the sweetness of companionship with Nature, will not rest satisfied with the help afforded by that handbook. Each one will want to go deeper into that particular department which most appeals to his own inclinations. The present volume is written expressly for those who desire to extend their knowledge of the British Lepidoptera, or, to use the more popular names, 'Butterflies and Moths.'

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Butterfly and Moth Book: Personal Studies and Observations of the More Familiar Species My interest in Moths and Butterflies was awakened some ten years ago while at the farm on which we spent our summers. The big flower garden and the old orchard served free luncheons to these insects and, judging by numbers, they appreciated the treats offered. At the time I was in need of an entire change of thought - a relaxation from the strain which had come with the long illness of the little mother. She had grown better, but I realized that henceforth she would always require my personal care and attention, and I wanted to give her not only these but some new interests which might replace in part other interests that she would be obliged to relinquish. It was then that the Moths and Butterflies solved these problems, for they led us into the fairy-land of Natural Science, where, as we journeyed, we forgot much of the fatigue and pain of earlier days.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Chapter From the Insect World: Butterflies and Moths He who studies nature and correctly interprets her language reads a book that is free from error; for he reads the thoughts of the Great Thinker. For, what is nature but the expression of His thought? If he reads unaided, he discovers truth; if he follows the interpretation of another, he demonstrates the truth. To discover or demonstrate truth is an exercise of high disciplinary value. A well recognized value of nature stud) is the cultivation it affords to the observational powers. To make close and accurate distinctions is a task of no mean significance. Its necessity is recognized in every field of labor. Herbert Spencer has well said: "Exhaustive observation is an element of all great success. It is not to artists, naturalists, and men of science only that it is needful; it is not only true that the skillful physician depends on it for the correctness of his diagnosis, and that to the good engineer it is so important that some years in the workshop are prescribed for him; but we may see that the philosopher also is fundamentally one who observes relationships of things which others had overlooked, and that the poet is one who sees the fine facts in nature which all recognize when pointed out, but did not before remark. Nothing requires more to be insisted on than that vivid and complete impressions are all-essential." More than a score of years ago, Chancellor F. H. Snow, of the University of Kansas, wrote: "It is because the power of observation is not properly trained at the time of its greatest activity that so many of our 'most highly' educated college graduates find themselves far inferior to self-educated artisans in knowledge of the common things of life. The activity of the observing faculty begins in infancy, and should continue through the entire period of childhood and youth. The common methods of training the youthful mind bear too much resemblance to the Chinese method, which trains no faculty but memory. The mistake of the elementary schools is too often repeated and intensified in the higher institutions of learning. Many a young man who can accurately distinguish the niceties of the Greek accentuation has never been taught to observe the commonest objects of nature around him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Butterflies and Moths of Teneriffe When the author left England, in the autumn of 1892, for a winters sunshine in Teneriffe, it was by no means her intention to write on the Lepidoptera of that Island. Soon after her arrival, however, she was struck by two things; the want of any sort of interesting out-door occupation (other than somewhat desultory riding expeditions) experienced by her companions in exile, and the absence of any account of the Lepidoptera of the Canary Islands, which we aid enable collectors to name their specimens. It is her hope that the present publication may be, at least to some extent, the means of remedying these deficiencies.

This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Illustrated Natural History of British Butterflies and Moths Once a worm, a thing that crept On the bare earth, then wrought a tomb and slept. In this state of worm or caterpillar, Butterflies of many kinds are most easy to obtain: to my notion, an umbrella and. A walking-stick are the best implements. Spread the umbrella; turn it upside down; hold it under a shrub, a bunch of nettles, or the bough of a tree: thrash the foliage with your walking-stick, and caterpillars without number will fall into the umbrella: pick them up, put them. In tin boxes, and take them home. They will not all produce Butterflies; many of them moths but whether caterpillars of moths or Butterflies, they are all worth keeping. Caterpillars being mostly eaters of vegetable matter, there is no difficulty in providing and renewing the plants upon which they feed. A garden pot, half filled with loose, sandy earth, with a few pieces of cane bent over, and the ends inserted in the pot this frame covered with gauze, and a string passed over it below the mouth of the pot, forms a very good cage for caterpillars. A slip of the food-plant should be'first placed in a phial of water and put in the centre of the cage, which should be kept in a shady place. According to the size of the caterpillars, and ithe heat of the weather, the food will require to be renewed from time to time. These instructions are copied from the World of Insects, by J. W. Douglas, and others, more minute, elaborate, and complete, will be found in that excellent little book, The insect-hunter's Companion, by the Rev. Joseph Greene. I would most willingly quote pages from this last-named work, which is published by Mr. Van Voorst at 1s. 6d. But I imagine that every collector of insects must of necessity purchase the book itself, and it would be useless to possess the same information in two forms. Treated in accordance with Mr. Greene's instructions, and carefully watched from time to time, the caterpillar will soon grow to its full size, will fix itself to the pot, the muslin, the leaves, or the twigs, and then turn to a chrysalis, and subsequently to a Butterfly, in the manner which I have fully described at page 14.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Butterflies and Moths at Home and Abroad AN elementary work of this kind necessarily displays many imperfections. The subject is too wide for casual survey; the treatment of the few species of British butterflies and moths I have attempted to describe falls fr short of what, as a naturalist, I am conscious it should be. My aim in writing, however, has been rather to guide and to suggest than to provide further material for advanced students; and I venture to hope that the indications given may induce those who are drawn towards Entomology, whether as pastime or study, to fill in the outlines for themselves fr n the inexhaustible Book of Nature.

As soon as their change of garments is over, the little caterpillars begin to feed again, as hungrily as before. But after about a week their new skins are too tight for them, and they have to change them again! This very often happens six or seven times before they are fully fed. But at last they stop eating, throw off their skins once more, and appear as chrysalids. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Butterflies and Moths of North America This Pamphlet is the result of numerous applications from beginners in many parts of the country, for information as to the methods of capturing, preserving, classifying, &c., Lepidoptera (butterflies and Moths) and I have endeavored to give such notes as lay in my power, the result of a lifetime devoted to studying and collecting in this branch of Natural Science. Almost the first thing the beginner wishes to know, after he has made a few captures and finds butterflies are not all alike, and not confined to two or three kinds, viz., little yellow ones and big red or black ones, is whether they have names and what those names are. In default of being able to obtain this in formation, ten to one he will give them names of his own invention, probably derived from some peculiarity, real or fancied, of form or colour. Then comes the desire to obtain literature on the subject; then to get specimens from other localities as soon as he becomes aware that those of Calabar are not the same as those of Kentucky; and so one thing leads to the other until, from the little acorn sown by chance, a goodly tree doth grow and flourish. To give some plain information that will tend a little to lighten the labor of the beginner, (perhaps far away from good collections, libraries and con genial companions, ) has been my object, as also to increase my correspondence with many students and collectors, both new and old, in various parts of this country as well as abroad, with whom I have not as yet had the pleasure of communicating.
