Genera insectorum dirigés par P. Wytsman. Homoptera. Fam. Acanaloniidae, Flatidae et Ricaniidae.
1923 185 p., 2 full colour plates, 1 b/w plate of wing nervation, paperbound (original printed covers). This is fascicule 182 of the Genera Insectorum. This part deals with homopterous families of which the often brightly coloured species superficially resemble Lepidoptera. The author, the Austrian entomologist Leopold Melichar (1856-1924) lived just long enough to see this fine work in print. Several taxa are new. Uncut. A very good, clean copy. Scarce.

Menzel Randolf; Eckoldt Matthias
L'intelligenza delle api. Cosa possiamo imparare da loro
ill., br. Amiamo le api soprattutto perché producono il miele. Ma sono anche fra gli animali più importanti e più intelligenti del pianeta. Senza la loro attività di impollinatrici, in tutto il mondo ci sarebbero problemi per le risorse alimentari. Sono però in grado di fare di più: il loro minuscolo cervello pensa, pianifica, fa di conto e forse sogna. Le api possiedono, sorprendentemente, molte delle nostre capacità mentali. Come percepiscono i profumi e vedono i colori, come si forma la loro memoria, come apprendono regole e modelli, addirittura come riconoscono i volti, da dove derivano le loro conoscenze, che cosa sanno e come vengono prese le decisioni in quel superorganismo che è una popolazione di api: sono i grandi temi di questo particolarissimo libro. Randolf Menzel e Matthias Eckoldt parlano anche della moria delle api e del ruolo che questi insetti possono avere nel creare un sistema di allerta precoce contro gli effetti nocivi delle nostre tecnologie.

Merian, M.S.
Histoire générale des insectes de Surinam et de toute l’Europe.
1771 Original engraved hand-coloured plate number XXXIV, depicting a moth, its caterpillar and its pupa on ‘’Vigne d’Amérique’’, large folio (33.6 x 50.2 cm). Later (probably not contemporary), but very well executed, hand-colouring. The plate was of course drawn by Maria Sibylla Merian, but was engraved by Pieter Sluyter (1675-1715). I am also offering the text part of this book (see under Entomology General).This work was first published in 1705 in Latin and Dutch. This plate comes from the French translation (stated as 3rd edition). The plates to this French edition appear to have been purchased at auction by L.C. Desnos (the Paris publisher). Merian’s ‘’Surinaamsche Insecten’’ or in French ‘’Insectes de Surinam’’ is one of the most famous entomology books ever produced.
