Insect Conservation Biology
These proceedings contain papers on insect conservation biology that are classified under 3 themes: (1) the current status of insect conservation, and major avenues for progress and hindrances (6 papers); (2) insects as model organisms in conservation biology (6 papers); and (3) future directions in insect conservation biology (6 papers).
The Conservation of Insects and Their Habitats
15th Symposium of the Royal Entomological Society of London, 14-15 September 1989 at the Department of Physics Lecture Theatre Imperial College, London.
Insect Parasitoids
13th Symposium of the Royal Entomological Society of London 18-19 September, 1985 at the Department of Physics Lecture Theatre, Imperial College, London.
Insect Populations In theory and in practice
Insects are far and away the largest group of animals on earth, with over a million described species, and they occupy a wide range of ecological niches - they may be herbivores, predators, parasites or decomposers. Some are of particular economic importance as pests of agriculture and forestry, as vectors of animal and human disease, or as species of interest to wildlife conservation, so an understanding of the processes determining their numbers is of considerable practical value.
Aquatic Insects
This book considers some of the potential influences on individuals and populations (e.g. environmental stresses, parasites, cannibalism, dispersal limitations), the 'cunning tricks' used by aquatic insects to overcome challenges (e.g. polarization vision, life-history strategies, osmoregulation, cold hardiness) and the consequences of those challenges at different levels of organization (e.g. distribution patterns, population structure, population genetics, evolution).
