This monograph is a detailed exposition of the anatomy and morphology of the lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), with emphasis on larval anatomy. Lepidoptera are much-used experimental animals in entomology, and they are among the most serious pests of cash crops. The author has chosen the sphingid, Manduca sexta, as a model for the group, for its large size and its popularity as an experimental animal. The anatomical descriptions provided are extremely detailed, and the author has relied heavily on illustrations to aid the reader in developing a full understanding of the anatomy of these fascinationg insects.
