This book, the second report from the New York State Entomologist, offers a detailed exploration of insects and their impact within the state of New York. The author compiles reports and studies from the years 1882 and 1883, presenting observations on various species and their behavior, including the Zebra caterpillar, Snow-born Boreus, Vagabond Crambus, and Colorado potato beetle.

The author provides farmers and agriculturalists with practical advice on how to identify and combat these pests, and shares insights on the life cycles and habits of the insects to help readers understand their behavior. This book provides a valuable historical record of insect study in New York and offers practical guidance for managing insect pests in agricultural settings.
