What reading level is Curiosities of Entomology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
THIS beautiful insect, the delight of the trout fisher, is so called from the Greek t^/yuepa, living for a day. The family of Epliemiridce consist of several genera, the generic charac- ters of which are taken from the number of wings, and the setae, or hair-like appendages to the abdomen. These setae are of great use to the little insect in steering its way through the air whilst performing that beautifully undulating flight which all must have observed. The Ephemerae have long, soft, tapering... bodies, terminating in three long setae, and four wings placed nearly or quite perpendicularly. Their antennae are very small and three-pointed. The setae are longer in the male, which is also readily distinguished from the female by longer fore-feet ; the colour of the male is much darker than that of the female, being bronze or chocolate ; and the male is also much smaller. The ovaries consist of two almond-shaped organs, which occupy nearly the whole of the abdominal cavity. The ova are unattached, and readily separate them- selves in water.
