1891018104Newtonville Mass.: By the Author: 1891. First published in 1890 this book is the second edition from 1891. "Illustrated with ten hand colored plates in which are given at least two hand-colored figures for each species. In preparing a second edition of this book I have not considered it advisable to make any changes in either the text or plates that appeared in the first edition. The present volume however contains an Appendix in which are given descriptions of one hundred and five species and sub-species of Butterflies that occur in North America east of the Mississippi River. These descriptions are mainly comparative and the text is accompanied by two hand colored plates on whcih are figured some of the species described. It has been my endeavor in this work to present recognizable figures and intelligeble descriptions of the Butterflies whihc occur in new England. The drawings and descriptions of the perfect insects are original but I have been obliged to compile descriptions of the larva and pupa from works of various authors who have written upon the subject." GOOD HARDCOVER ex-library withdrawn hand colored plates are fine no library marking are present on plates the description page for Plate two has separated from the book. Few text pages has some short tears also text description for Plate VIII has partially separated from the binding. Book has been collated and determined to be complete. Hard Cover.

Possibly lacking part 26 but the months are consecutive so almost certainly a printing error. SECOND VOLUME Vol IV number 31 January 1895 to Volume IV number 53 November 1896. Added at the rear is Swanton's paper on British Puff-Balls 6pp and Mosley's 'Catalogue of British Birds Nests and Eggs' 46pp. Signature again of Albert John Barnes contemporary cloth but hinges completely broken so the text block is sound but detached.

Hingeston 1852 original blind-stamped cloth gilt lettering on upper cover slightly faded a little worn at the corners very neatly re-backed with a modern cloth spine unlettered.
