This second volume of "The Complete Writings of Thomas Say on the Entomology of North America" compiles the important entomological work of Thomas Say (1787-1834), often considered the father of American descriptive entomology. This collection, edited by John Lawrence Le Conte and George Ord, presents Say's detailed observations and descriptions of numerous insect species found across North America. This volume offers invaluable insights into the insect life of the early 19th century.
Featuring meticulous descriptions and classifications, Say's writings are essential for understanding the historical context of entomological study in North America. This work remains a crucial resource for researchers, historians of science, and anyone interested in the natural history of the continent. The detailed accounts provide a foundation for modern entomological studies and offer a glimpse into the biodiversity of North America as it was understood nearly two centuries ago.
