Insects and allied parasites injurious to livestock and poultry in Canada / by Eric Hearle.: A12-8/53-1938E-PDF

"More than 200 species of insects are known to attack live stock, and this is exclusive of mites and ticks. In the pages that follow considerable attention has been given to the life-histories and habits of the more important species, for without some knowledge of these, live stock owners cannot hope to deal with insect pests in an effective manner"--Introd., p. 5.
