184 BARON WALCKENAER ON THE INSECTS 
easdem vitibus voluerimus consulere, allio trito falces putatorie ferun- 
tur unguende*.” 
Columella having occasion to speak of the destruction caused by the 
Caterpillar, twice employs the word Campe. 
“* Nec solum teneras audent erodere frondes 
Tmplicitus conche limax, hirsutaque Campet.” 
And afterwards: 
“« Non aliter quam decussa pluit arbore nimbus 
Vel teretes mali, vel tect cortice glandis, 
Volvitur ad terram distorto corpore Campef.” 
It is therefore evident that it is among the Caterpillars, or the larvee 
of the Lepidoptera or Butterflies, that we must search for the Kampes, 
which, according to the Geoponics, are produced in the vine and de- 
stroy it. 
XI. Phtheir—This Greek word is known to apply to the parasitic 
insect peculiar to man, the Louse. We shall have to examine whether 
Ctesias § and the author of the Geoponics have employed this word to 
signify all sorts of insects injurious to the vine, which include implicitly 
the Kampes or Caterpillars; or whether they had in view a particular 
insect, which being small was for that reason considered by cultivators 
as the Louse of the vine. 
XII. Julos or Julus——Suidas, an author of the ninth or tenth cen- 
tury, says in his Dictionary ||, that the Judos is a worm of the vine; that 
it has a great number of feet, and is also called Multipede ; that it coils 
itself up, and breeds in moist vessels. 
From these few particulars the most learned lexicographers have not 
hesitated to establish the identity of the Jouwlos with the Ips, Iki, Con- 
volvulus, and other insects mentioned by the ancients as injurious to the 
vine. 
We shall soon see how many errors are accumulated from thus esta- 
blishing relations for which there is no authority in any text. 
No ancient author has mentioned the Judos in connexion with the 
vine, or as an animal destructive of it. 
The Latins have employed the word Julus or Julius in several of the 
same senses as were given to it by the Greeks; but I am not aware that 
they have ever employed it to denote a worm or an insect, or any ani- 
mal whatever.
