Bionomics of a Cattle Louse [PDF]
IN the course of a study of the life-histories and bionomics of cattle lice, I have found that the species Solenopotes capillatus, End., hitherto considered to be rare in Great Britain, is more common than has been supposed. I found the species first on dairy shorthorn cattle (cows, heifers and calves) at the Cooper Field Research Station, Little ...

THE DESTRUCTIVE GREEN–PEA LOUSE [PDF]
Perhaps never in the history of economic entomology has an undescribed species of insect appeared so suddenly and over such a wide area, and in such destructive numbers, as the “destructive green-pea louse,” the popular name I have given the insect herein described.
