Book Description
Excerpt from The Entomologist, Vol. 25: An Illustrated Journal of General Entomology; January, 1892 Although it is the oldest association of entomologists extant, the Entomological Club of London does not appear to be as widely known as it certainly deserves to be. Before, however, we consider the origin, progress, and present state of this Club, we will brie y review the history of kindred institutions in this country. Not only does England hold the honourable position of being the first country in Europe to establish a purely Entomological Society, but, as a matter of fact, no less than five Of such societies were founded in London between 1745 and 1831, all of which preceded any continental society devoted to Entomology.
