Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook of the Destructive Insects of Victoria, Vol. 3: With Notes on the Methods to Be Adopted to Check and Extirpate Them Insects of Victoria has been prepared on similar lines to those indicated in the preface to Parts I. And II. As the work of publishing a complete account of the many pests to which our plants are subjected progressed, it was found almost impossible to adhere strictly to the former plan of bringing the insects attacking various fruit trees together, as new pests are continually making their appearance, which necessitates the more important kinds being dealt with first. The large demand for the two previous parts points to the conclusion that the work is welcomed by those engaged in rural pursuits, in whose interest it has been prepared, and, by permission of the Victorian Department of Agriculture, Part IV., the plates for which are nearly ready, will be published as soon as possible, and as the work is not written for scientific entomologists, analysis of the parts of the various insects figured has not been given.
