Richard Gareth Davies (born June 20, 1920) is a British entomologist and one-time professor of entomology at Imperial College, at that time a constituent college of the federal University of London. ==Publications== In 1925, Augustus Daniel Imms published the first edition of ''A General Textbook of Entomology''. Its seventh edition appeared in 1948, the year before his death. By then it had become one of the standard entomological textbooks of its day; in 1958 it was described as having been "the standard reference work for over 30 years". In 1942, Imms published a shorter, simpler version, ''Outlines of Entomology''. Further editions of both books were published up to the time of Imms' death in 1949, the main textbook reaching the 7th edition, the shorter version the 4th. After Imms' death, Owain Richards and Davies took on the task of keeping Imms' works up to date. Later editions were published as ''Imm's General Textbook of Entomology'' and ''Imm's Outlines of Entomology'', with Richards and Davies given on the cover as the authors. The final 10th edition of the general textbook appeared in 1977. It still is sufficiently significant to have been reprinted (in two softcover volumes).〔Imms' General Textbook of Entomology: Volume I: Structure, Physiology and Development (Science Paperbacks) Paperback – November 10, 1977 by A.D.
