Catalogue of the Described Coleoptera of the United States is a book written by Friedrich Ernst Melsheimer in 1853. The book is a comprehensive catalog of all the known species of beetles in the United States at the time. It contains detailed descriptions of each species, including their physical characteristics, habitats, and behaviors. The book is divided into sections based on the families of beetles, and each section is further divided into subfamilies and genera. The catalog is an important resource for entomologists and other researchers studying the biodiversity of the United States. It provides a valuable record of the beetle species present in the country in the mid-19th century and serves as a benchmark for future studies of insect populations and distributions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
