Thanks Dave, may be useful so I too downloaded it. I checked out several terms and all those seemed to be there, but the 'search' function often doesn't give a useful result -- it drops you at a subsidiary use of a word, not at the main definition (e.g. microtrichia, lamina, medulla, chordotonal), and there's no cross-link from there. It is easy to scroll around, though, so not a big problem.
A limitation is that very little information is given against each definition, usually just a bare phrase or one liner. It is therefore not a useful source to start to allow exploration of a new unfamiliar topic, compared say to Wigglesworth's 'Principles' 7th ed., or a standard invert zoology text. I wouldn't buy the $90 hardback printed version.
A fair retort of course is that some people can always find something to grouse about, even when it's free like this.
Steve, Halifax
