Excerpt from The North American Species of Drosophila In View of these facts, it has seemed to the writer that a systematic review of the group would be desirable. No comprehensive study of the American forms has hitherto been made, so that our knowledge of the number of species and of their distribution and habits is very fragmentary. Furthermore, much of the published data on these points is unreliable, for the reason that different names have sometimes been applied to the same form, or different forms have been given the same name. Even when material has been identified by the same entomologist, there is a large possibility of inconsistency - and this applies to the writer's own determinations, for it is very easy to go astray when identifying pinned material. It is hoped, however, that a beginning has been made in the undertaking of bringing order out of something very like chaos.
