The correct reference is as follows:

[LEACH, William Elford] [1815]. Entomology. In: Brewster D.
    The Edinburgh Encyclopedia. Vol. 9: 2+766 p. Edinburgh.

The authorship and date of publication are originally not given,
and should be enclosed in square brackets as demonstrated only
by external evidence. See also:

Carpenter M. M. 1945. Bibliography of biographies of entomologists. -
    Amer. Midl. Nat. 33(1): 1-116; Supplement - Idem. 1953 50(2): 257-348.

Hope this is of some use.
