Applied Entomology of Palestine, being a Report to the Palestine Government

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  10 July 2009

Affiliation:
Late Medical Entomologist, Government of Palestine.

Extract

In the pages which follow I record some observations which I made upon the insect pests of this extremely interesting country while I served the Palestine Government as Medical Entomologist (May 1921 to August 1923). I have divided my notes into three parts. The part which deals with Anopheles and malaria is the fullest; that which deals with some other creatures of medical and veterinary interest is incomplete, and it must not be supposed that an insect is absent or even rare because I have not found it; that which deals with the pests of crops and plants is extremely fragmentary.
