Description:
Scarce. Stainton stated that ‘The object of the present work is to supply the Entomologist who visits Southern Europe with one portable volume comprising all that has been written on the Tineina of that portion of the globe.
The aim has been to reproduce accurately the records of each observer, but at the same time to place them, if possible and distinctly before the reader than they appeared when originally published”. It includes contributions by amongst others, P.C. Zeller, Otto Staudinger, Pierre Millière and Henry Burney.
