Johan Christian Fabricius : Systema entomologiae

'I do not perfectly understand Fabricius always, but I think his Genera more natural than those of any other Author; it is indeed almost impossible to follow him in the smaller insects through all the minutia of his researches, but admitting him to be right in these, his Disposition and discriptions [sic] are accurate. I [grant his] obscurity and the greater Facility of the method of Linn[aeus], but I find much to be pleased with in the Systema Entomologica Fabia and frequently recur to it'.

Century: 1700-1799     Reader/Listener/Group: George Crabbe      Print: Book
