Say's "trial issue" [1817] of a portion of Vol. 1, containing six plates only and described by the author himself as "never really published." The quality of the plates, in drawing and in coloring, is extraordinary; the accuracy of the descriptions has earned for Say the title of "the father of descriptive entomology in America." "Trial issue."
