OPINIONS OF ENTOMOLOGISTS. 



"The Entomologist's Annual" cannot fail being very useful, both as an annual resumS 

 of new discoveries, and as making Entomologists acquainted with each other. I wish it 

 every success, and have ordered four copies to give to young Entomological friends. — 

 William Spence, 18, Loioer Seymour -Street. 



I think the " Little Stranger" is the very thing we want, and you may depend upon me 

 making such a welcome novelty known.— T. J. Bold, Newcastle-iipon-Ti/ne. 



I have just received "The Entomologist's Annual." I am greatly pleased with it, 

 especially that portion of it which contains a list of the new insects discovered since 18ii5. 

 — Rev. Joseph Greene, Dublin. 



The " Annual " is very much wanted, and should have the certain effect of stimulating 

 to further observation and research. I hope it will meet such a body of readers as will 

 induce its being continued. — Hugh Colquhoun, M.D., Glasgow. 



It is certainly a good design, and will tend to keep many a country collector up to the 

 mark Avho might otherwise have fallen in the rear : for it has hitherto frequently been a 

 matter of no small difficulty to get information about novelties. — J. W. Dunning, Cambridge. 



I will do all I can to promote the sale of the " Annual," because I think it deserves 

 support. — G. R. Watekhouse, British Mvseum, 



I think it an exceedingly successful and usefid ■publication. — T. V. Wollaston, Brampton. 



I have but little fear, after it is once kilown, of its having a large sale. — John Scott, 

 Stockton. 



I am much pleased with the work : it is a book that was sadly wanted. — E. H. Stretch, 

 Banbury. 



The '• Annual " is excellent, and will, I expect, set many a net that has long laid dor- 

 mant a-going again. — George Wailes, Newcastle-upon-Tyne. 



If the thousand collectors that I estimate there really exist in England are to be reached,- 

 i must be through such half-crown publications as yours. — Edwin Lees, Worcester.
