Excerpt from Journal of the New York Entomological Society, Vol. 12: Devoted to Entomology in General, 1904 Considering the extent of the Philippine Islands, extending as they do over 1,200 miles of territory, our knowledge of the Hymenopterous fauna is singularly meager. More attention should be given to collecting these important insects. Since the islands came into the possession of the United States much material has been sent to the National Museum, and with the hope that more attention will be given to the collecting and study of this order in the Philippines, I give below a list of the known species, and describe most of the new species now in our collection. The vast majority of the material, upon which this contribution is based, was received from Dr. P. L. Stangl, U. S. Army, and Father W. A. Stanton, of Manila. Father Stanton's contributions to the National Museum, not only in this but in other orders, are especially valuable, and he has been eminently successful in discovering many new species in genera not before recorded from the Philippines.

Excerpt from Journal of the New York Entomological Society, Vol. 8: Devoted to Entomology in General; 1900 The development of the wings inside of the body of the larvae of insects with a complete metamorphosis is one of the most striking features in the transformations of insects; it is, however, one that is not generally understood. Although the fact that caterpillars have wings was discovered by Malpighi (1687) and by Swammerdam (1738), it is only in the last half of the present century that any exact information as to their method of development has been obtained; and this information is only just finding its way into the general text-books. The beginning of the solution of the problem was made by Weissmann ('64 and '66) in his remarkable papers on the development of flies. These papers were followed by important contributions by Landois ('71), Ganin ('76), Dewitz ('81), Pancritius ('84), Schaffer ('89), Mayer ('96), Gonin ('92), and others. The most complete account that has yet appeared is that of Gonin. Nearly two years ago, in the course of some studies of the development of the wings of Pieris, Professor Comstock came to the conclusion that in some respects the excellent account by Gonin was inaccurate. And at his suggestion I undertook the repetition of the tracing of the development of the wings in this insect. The following paper is the result of this investigation. As Gonin's contribution appeared in a journal which is to be found in but few libraries in this country, it seems worth while to publish for American readers my complete results even though in many particulars they duplicate the results of Gonin.
