THE HESSIAN FLY NOT IMPORTED FROM EUROPE
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Extract
The official publication of Bulletin 4, “The Hessian Fly,” by Dr. A. S. Packard, for the N. A. Entom. Commission, has induced me to study again the question of the importation of this insect by Hessian troops at an early period of the war. The excellent memoir by Dr. A. Fitch was believed to have settled this question in a final manner; therefore his opinion was accepted by all subsequent American writers.
