ENTOMOLOGICAL INTELLIGENCE, ETC. 29 
upon various species of insects which attack fruit trees; such as 
the American blight, the pear-leaf blister moth, &e. 
The Entomological Society of London also, desirous of acquiring 
public support by giving proofs of a desire to render its labours 
useful, instituted prizes for memoirs on destructive insects, and if no 
other good had originated from the society than the publication of 
Mr. Le Keux’s memoir on the turnip Haltica, and Mr. Newport’s 
on the Athalia Centifolize, it would have amply merited the support 
it has received. 
A series of papers appeared in the early volumes of the 
Entomological Magazine, by an anonymous writer, on different 
species of obnoxious insects, and. in 1837, I commenced the 
following series of articles in Loudon’s Gardener’s Magazine :— 
No. 1. The Turnip Flea-beetle (Haitica | No. 9. The Slimy Grub of the Pear, &c. 
nemorum), including descriptions of (Selandria AE thiops).

Moreover, in Loudon’s Arboretum Britannicum, I have given an 
account of the insects which attack the principal genera of English 
trees. : 
In Scotland, Mr. J. Duncan has also published a series of 
articles in the Quarterly Journal of Agriculture, on obnoxious 
insects, of which the following is a list, together with references to 
the volumes in which they are described :—
