| The three volumes of Gurney's "Copepoda" were published by the Ray Society in 1931, 1932 and 1933 respectively. Vol. I covers the Calanoida, Vol. II the Harpacticoida, and Vol III the Cyclopoda & Caligoida. The greater part of Vol. I deals with habitat, life cycle and distribution, then the remainder of the 3 volumes cover the taxonomy and individual species in great detail, with over 2,000 illustrations. Like many other Ray Society monographs, "British Fresh-water Copepoda" remains one of the most important works on its subject, many years after its publication.

| This, the sixth volume in F.N. Pierce's series on the Genitalia of the British Lepidoptera, was published in 1941. Though they are regarded as invaluable for identifying difficult species, the originals are not easily available, and the reprinted versions were considered inferior in quality. Pisces Conservation worked with the Lancashire and Cheshire Entomological Society to produce this volume in electronic form. They carefully scanned and cleaned the original artwork to recreate the plates from scratch. Furthermore, species concordance was added for all the species and their synonyms, with Bradley numbers, to assist the modern lepidopterist. This is more than a facsimile copy. It is a genuine improvement which will bring the original work to life for the modern user. |
