Index to

The Fauna of Devon: Lepidoptera

by

E. Parfitt

Trans. Devon Assoc. Vol. X. (1878), pp. 411-480.

Prepared by Michael Steer

The Paper was presented at the Association’s July 1878, Paignton meeting. Specimens listed in the catalogue as an appendix to the Paper were collected in specifically identified locations throughout Devon by most of those individuals recorded in the index. For the genealogist, the paper is a treasure house of names associated with the earliest research into our county’s unique natural history. The term Lepidoptera was used in 1746 by Carl Linnaeus in his Fauna Svecica. It refers to an order of insects that includes butterflies and moths. These together constitute about 10% of the total described species of living organisms. Recent estimates suggest the order may have more species than earlier thought. The author’s obituary is available in GENUKI. The Paper, from a copy of a rare and much sought-after journal can be downloaded from the Internet Archive. Google has sponsored the digitisation of books from several libraries. These books, on which copyright has expired, are available for free educational and research use, both as individual books and as full collections to aid researchers.
