It will be chiefly, then, amongst the biting and piercing mouthed insects that the injurious species will be found. But we must bear in mind that the suctorial mouthed insects have mandibulate larvEe, which can do as much damage as the true mandibulate groups. Many insects are distinctly beneficial by destroying other noxious insects, and a few are of no inconsiderable commercial Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Theobald, Frederick Vincent, 1868-1930.
