Well, if I had been even an orthodox foreign servant, I would have had to obtain clearance from my employing department, even if I had written a book on lepidoptera.

好吧，如果我是一名正统的外国公务员，即使我写了一本关于鳞翅目的书，我也必须获得我的用人部门的许可。

The insects in Madeira which are not ground-feeders, and which, as certain flower-feeding coleoptera and lepidoptera, must habitually use their wings to gain their subsistence, have, as Mr. Wollaston suspects, their wings not at all reduced, but even enlarged.

马德拉的昆虫不是地面食性动物， 而且像某些以花为食的鞘翅目和鳞翅目昆虫，它们必须习惯性地使用它们的翅膀来维持生计， 正如沃拉斯顿先生所怀疑的那样， 它们的翅膀根本没有减少， 但甚至扩大。
