Graphium evemon:

  • no description of butterfly/only one image
  • missing synonyms (eg. Papilio evemon)[1]
  • accuracy of native range? found in Indonesia, Malaysia [2]
  • only single reference

for actual article assignment:

Invertebrate zoology:

  • history/developments
    • Early Modern era:
      • Conrad Gesner's Historia Animalum (1551-1587)
        • information from older works; restating the work of Pliny and Aristotle; mixing of old knowledge with own observations[3]
      • Invention of the microscope in 1599
        • Robert Hooke--working out of England/Royal Society
          • observation of insects (including some larval forms) and other invertebrates (i.e. ticks [Arachnids])
          • Micrographia (1665)[4]
      • shift towards experimental efforts following efforts of Sir Frances Bacon
      • Jan Swammerdam--Dutch microscopist
        • worked disproving spontaneous generation
        • advancements in anatomy and physiology
          • in entomology: dissections of insects, observation of internal structures[5]
        • classification of insects based on life histories[6]
          • work toward proof that egg/larva/pupa/adult are same individual
        • support for 'modern' science over blind belief in the work of philosophers of Antiquity[5]
    • 1700s:
      • naming of species that were relevant to economic pursuits, such as farming (pests and pest control)
      • entomology changed greatly and rapidly[7]
