The Entomologist

The Entomological Magazine was succeeded by The Entomologist published in London by Edward Newman between 1840 and [1869] in four volumes:

This in turn was succeeded by Newman's Entomologist published by Simpkin, Marshall & Co. at London [1869-1876] and from that date until 1973 (volume 106)[1] as, once more, The Entomologist. Around World War I, it was edited by Richard South.[2] He died in 1932, but the journal continued publication until 1973 (volume 107). In 1989 it was revived, under the editorship initially of Hugh Loxdale,[3] and then of B.O.C.Gardener. It ceased publication with volume 111 in 1992.
