That's the 1961 edition. Gorgeous drawings, and some lovely b+w photos, too. I haven't come across anything egregiously inaccurate, but it's pretty general. It seems like most of the classification changes have been within classes (like cockroaches being moved out of orthoptera) or the like.

Is that a recent edition? Is there one? I think there are classification changes and things that would warrant one.
