About this book
Elementary Zoology is a second edition, revised, by Vernon L. Kellogg, Professor of Entomology. The preface says that three kinds of work should be included in the elementary study of zoology, among them observations in the field covering the habits and behavior of animals and their relations to their physical surroundings, to plants, and to each other. A technical note on the toad says to make, with a fine pair of scissors, a longitudinal median cut through the skin of the venter from the anal opening to the angle of the lower jaw.
The text says that the finest pearls and mother-of-pearl come from the tropical species Meleagrina margaritifera. The text describes spreading- or setting-boards as consisting of two strips of wood fastened a short distance apart so as to leave between them a groove for the body of the insect.
