AUTHORSHIP. 



The preparation of this bulletin has been made possible by the 

 cooperation of a number of entomologists, fifteen in all, who will 

 be recognized as authorities in their special fields. Of the original 

 authors, one or two found themselves over-burdened with official 

 duties, and were obliged to relinquish a part of the program which 

 they had undertaken, and new men had to be procured. 



An effort has been made to secure as much uniformity of treat- 

 ment as possible, and each author was furnished a brief outline of 

 instructions, most of which were followed. In general, however, 

 it seemed best to sacrifice uniformity, rather than individuality, and 

 no real attempt has been made to harmonize the treatment in the 

 different families. 



In the following list, each author is responsible for the 

 manuscript of the family opposite his or her name.
