Ferris, G.F.
The sucking lice.
1951 ix, 320 p., 124 text figures, blue buckram with gilt author/title on the spine. Library stamps, else good copy.Written by the American entomologist Gordon Floyd Ferris (1893-1958), professor of entomology at Standford University, California, and with the collaboration of Chester J. Stojanovich. With detailed descriptions and illustrations, including those of new species. Two things may be extra noteworthy. First, the motto, lifted from a work by Denny (1842): "In the progress of this work, however, the author had to contend with repeated rebukes from his friends for entering upon the illustration of a tribe of insects whose very name was sufficient to create feelings of disgust", and two: the chapters on the pediculi ascribed to man. The latter alone is worth buying the volume.
