  REPORT 
  OF 
  NEW 
  JERSEY 
  STATE 
  MUSEUM. 
  

  

  W. 
  Wenzel, 
  Henry 
  W., 
  Philadelphia. 
  One 
  of 
  the 
  hest 
  collectors 
  of 
  

   "Coleoptera" 
  in 
  the 
  country, 
  and 
  possesses 
  the 
  best 
  individual 
  col- 
  

   lection 
  in 
  Philadelphia. 
  His 
  collections 
  in 
  New 
  Jersey 
  have 
  been 
  

   chiefly 
  made 
  along 
  the 
  line 
  of 
  the 
  Atlantic 
  City 
  R. 
  R., 
  in 
  Camden 
  and 
  

   Gloucester 
  Counties, 
  within 
  easy 
  reach 
  of 
  Philadelphia, 
  and 
  at 
  Angle- 
  

   sea, 
  Cape 
  May 
  County. 
  This 
  latter 
  point 
  has 
  been 
  a 
  favorite, 
  as 
  

   the 
  number 
  of 
  species 
  taken 
  there 
  will 
  testify. 
  He 
  has 
  also 
  collected 
  

   at 
  Lake 
  Hopatcong 
  and 
  in 
  the 
  Orange 
  Mts. 
  To 
  Mr. 
  Wenzel 
  the 
  list 
  

   of 
  "Coleoptera" 
  owes 
  much 
  of 
  its 
  completeness, 
  and 
  in 
  the 
  families 
  

   "Scydmaenidse" 
  and 
  "Pselaphidae" 
  he 
  has 
  practically 
  prepared 
  the 
  

   entire 
  list. 
  Incidentally 
  he 
  also 
  collects 
  in 
  other 
  orders, 
  the 
  material 
  

   gathered 
  being 
  generally 
  turned 
  over 
  to 
  his 
  friends, 
  according 
  to 
  their 
  

   specialties.

  to 
  the 
  Ex- 
  

   periment 
  Station. 
  Dr. 
  Britton 
  has 
  been 
  good 
  enough 
  to 
  help 
  me 
  out 
  in 
  

   the 
  "Aleyrodidse" 
  and 
  "Coccidas," 
  the 
  list 
  in 
  the 
  first-named 
  being 
  as 
  

   prepared 
  by 
  him.

  captures 
  are

  Wdt, 
  Weidt, 
  A. 
  J., 
  Newark. 
  A 
  Lepidopterist 
  and 
  more 
  recently 
  interested 
  

   in 
  "Diptera." 
  Most 
  of 
  his 
  collecting 
  has 
  been 
  done 
  in 
  the 
  environs 
  

   of 
  Newark 
  and 
  in 
  the 
  Orange 
  Mountains, 
  and 
  much 
  of 
  his 
  material 
  

   in 
  the 
  "Lepidoptera" 
  has 
  been 
  seen 
  by 
  me. 
  

  

  Wheeler, 
  Dr. 
  William 
  Morton, 
  Harvard 
  Univ., 
  Professor 
  of 
  Entomology. 
  

   Specializes 
  in 
  ants 
  and 
  has 
  written 
  the 
  list 
  in 
  that 
  series. 
  Dr. 
  

   Wheeler 
  has 
  made 
  many 
  of 
  his 
  studies 
  in 
  New 
  Jersey, 
  and 
  this 
  makes 
  

   the 
  records 
  in 
  the 
  "Formicoidea" 
  exceptionally 
  complete 
  and 
  satis- 
  

   factory. 
  

  

  Wrms. 
  Wormsbacher, 
  Henry, 
  Jersey 
  City. 
  A 
  Lepidopterist 
  who 
  has 
  col- 
  

   lected 
  at 
  various 
  points 
  in 
  the 
  Hackensack 
  Valley. 
  His 
  records 
  are 
  

   scattered 
  throughout 
  the 
  order. 
  

  

  Zabriskie, 
  Rev. 
  J. 
  L. 
  Has 
  collected 
  generally, 
  largely 
  at 
  Flatbush, 
  Long 
  

   Island, 
  and 
  at 
  Nyack 
  and 
  other 
  points 
  just 
  north 
  of 
  the 
  New 
  Jersey 
  

   line. 
  Some 
  of 
  his 
  specimens 
  are 
  in 
  the 
  U. 
  S. 
  Nat. 
  Mus., 
  and 
  these 
  

   are 
  credited 
  to 
  him 
  in 
  this 
  list. 
  

  

  A 
  very 
  few 
  names 
  have 
  been 
  omitted, 
  where 
  only 
  cited 
  once 
  or 
  

   twice, 
  but 
  I 
  think 
  no 
  contributor 
  of 
  any 
  important 
  record 
  has 
  been 
  over- 
  

   looked: 
  none 
  has 
  been 
  intentionally 
  left 
  out. 
  and 
  sincere 
  thanks 
  are 
  given 
  

   to 
  all 
  for 
  their 
  contributions. 
  It 
  is 
  only 
  by 
  the 
  contributions 
  of 
  many, 
  135 
  

   in 
  this 
  case, 
  that 
  even 
  an 
  approximately 
  complete 
  survey 
  of 
  the 
  insect 
  

   fauna 
  of 
  any 
  State 
  can 
  be 
  obtained.
