The Life of the Caterpillar

This, the sixth volume of the Collected Edition of Fabres Entomological Works in English, is the first that I am preparing for publication since the authors death, on the 11th of October, 1915, at an exceedingly advanced age. It contains all the essays, fourteen in number, which he wrote on Butterflies and Moths, or their caterpillars. Three of these, the chapters entitled The Great Peacock, The Banded Monk and The Sense of Smell, are included under the titles of The Great Peacock, The Oak Eggar and A Truffle-hunter: the Bolboceras Gallicus in a volume of miscellaneous extracts from the Souvenirs entomologiques translated by Mr. Bernard Miall and published by the Century Company. The volume in question is named Social Life in the Insect World; and I strongly recommend it to the reader, if only because of the excellent photographs from nature with which it is illustrated. Chapter III. of the present volume, The Pine Processionary: the Procession, has appeared [8]in the Fortnightly Review; and Chapter XIV., The Cabbage Caterpillar, the last essay but one from the authors pen, written, I believe, within two or three years of his death, was first printed in the Century Magazine, some time before its publication in the original. It does not form part of the Souvenirs entomologiques. The remaining essays are new in their English guise. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
