LITEEATUEE. 



For access to some of the books enumerated below, my thanks are due to 

 Mr. Adolph Sutro and his librarian, Mr. George Moss, who not only placed 

 the Sutro Library at my disposal, but also imported rare books for my 

 special benefit. 



Several references to books which I had no opportunity to inspect, have 

 been made after Solms-Laubach. 



As a great number of the following works are books of travel and con- 

 tain only few pages or a few lines devoted to our subject, I have added 

 the pages on which hie found these special references. 



My very sincere thanks are due to my esteemed friend, the well known 

 entomologist, Dr. E. A. Schwartz, in Washington, D. C, for first calling 

 my attention to Dr. Cunningham's experiments on Ficus Roxburghii aiid 

 for copying extracts of his memoir at a time when the original was not at 

 my disposal. To my knowledge, there is no one in this country who has 

 so carefully studied the subject of caprification as Dr. Schwartz.
