Lectotypes of the Species of Hymenoptera (except Apoidea) Described by Abbe Provancher.

<p>Lectotypes of the Species of Hymenoptera (except Apoidea) Described by Abbe Provancher is a meticulous study by A. B. Gahan focusing on the lectotypes of Hymenoptera species excluding Apoidea (bees) that were originally described by Abbé Provancher. This scholarly work provides a critical examination of Provancher's entomological contributions clarifying and establishing the lectotypes necessary for accurate taxonomic classification.</p><p>Gahan's research is invaluable for entomologists taxonomists and historians of science particularly those specializing in Hymenoptera. By designating and describing lectotypes the book ensures the stability and precision of species identification addressing potential ambiguities in Provancher's original descriptions. This publication is an essential reference for anyone working with Hymenoptera taxonomy offering detailed insights into the nomenclature and classification of these insects and honoring the legacy of Abbé Provancher's pioneering work.</p><p>This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
