Explanation of Terms Used in Entomology
Produced by Jon Richfield
"Explanation of Terms Used in Entomology" by John Bernhard Smith is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The work aims to provide a comprehensive glossary of entomological terms, addressing the evolving language and concepts in the field of entomology. This text serves as a resource for students and researchers to navigate the intricate terminology and definitions prevalent in the study of insects. The opening of the publication establishes John B. Smith's intent to produce a revised edition of a previous glossary, detailing the collaborative efforts that significantly expanded the original list of terms. Smith recounts the challenges he faced during this process, including the reliance on contributions from various entomologists to clarify definitions and replace outdated terms. The early passages emphasize the dynamic nature of entomological science, highlighting the continuous development of its vocabulary amidst increasing specialization among researchers in different orders of insects.
