Entomology Ecology & Biodiversity
The dominance of insects amongst all living organisms on earth, coupled with infinite wealth of knowledge so important for our own existence, is a fundamental scientific fact which is yet to be widely acknowledged. This dominance means that in numbers of species beyond our comprehension these animals permeate diverse and essential natural processes in Earth's terrestrial, aerial and freshwater ecosystems, contributing to the function of the natural world as a self-sustaining biological system. Invariably insects are an integral and complex part of the terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems with which the future of humans is inextricably linked. Insects have ultimately achieved a formidable di...
Scientist: A Unique Species and the Backbone of a Nations Economic and Intellectual Prosperity
Of how many books can it be said that their publication directly affected the personal wellbeing of every person on the earth? No doubt, many books have been written which have changed the outlook of millions, altered social institutions, and even deflected the course of history, but of very few can it be said that their contents concerned the very central core of the construction of that rare amongst rarest of human morphs – the scientist – whom the entire humanity owes virtually everything, from good living conditions including clothes, drinking water, food, hygiene and health to clean environment. This book is all about the virtues that make a scientist. It is certainly not an easy ta...
Guide for Insect Morphology
The main criteria of consolidation of this book "Guide for Insect Morphology" (Objective based) is to fulfil the need of the students those who are appearing for JRF, SRF, ARS, NET, Civils and several other competitive exams. To consolidate this book it has taken several days to collect, edit and update the vast literatures from various reference books, journals and different websites. Due to compilation of all the topics into one books it may be chance of missing some of the things which will be most useful to the students, so we try to consolidate the basic subject (Insect Morphology) which are at most important in the entomology which will give a vast knowledge within a short period of ti...
The Versatile Visionary Symphony of Leadership, Science and Enterprise
An autobiography of Dr. B. Vasantharaj David having 7 decades of experience in leading scientific and multinational agrochemical companies, and discovery in science and expertise in crop protection and toxicology and institutions building to be inspirational to the future young generation. He has been responsible for the development of Fredrick Institute of Plant Protection and Toxicology (Presently International Institute of Biotechnology & Toxicology and Jai Research Foundation, Gujarat. He discovered about 250 new species of whiteflies and an international expert in this group of insects. His wide experience with agrochemical industry particularly in product development helped the industr...
Dynamics Of Insect Behavior
In this book, 'state of art' situation in patterns of behaviour is presented by the authors, each with expertise in respective fields on diverse aspects such as pollination, predation and parasitism, forest and agricultural pests, besides the dynamics of aquatic insects in general and dragonflies in particular, in addition to insect vectors of diseases. The need for an appreciation of the differentiation processes controlling growth and development of plant galls has been adequately emphasised, these galls representing highly regulated growth manifestations of plants, ensuring nutrition and shelter for the insects concerned. Behavioural shifts of insects due to current climatic changes and their implications in insect conservation and control are also highlighted. This book will be relevant to the undergraduate and particularly graduate students taking courses in insect ecology and evolution, conservation biology and environmental management as well as to committed researchers in these fields in addition to conservation practitioners eager to have a comprehensive background of the multifaceted aspects of insect behavioural dynamics.
Entomology in the Doon Valley (Garhwal Himalaya) A Stronghold for Insect Research
Entomology in the Doon Valley (Garhwal Region) is a unique journey into annals of the country’s most fascinating and highly entomofauna rich habitat – the Dehra Dun or the Doon Valley, tucked in the cosy climate of the foothills of the lower Himalayan region. Notwithstanding an unprecedented quantum of fragmented information available on the insects of the Doon Valley, courtesy various different long term research programmes carried out at the three major research institutions, viz., the Forest Research Institute & Colleges, the Zoological Survey of India and The Dayanand Anglo Vedic (PG) College, all located in Dehra Dun, yet no single entomological treatise detailing all the insect ord...
Ecological Entomology: Insect Life in Odd Environments
One of the principal aims in writing this book pertains to the increasing impact of human influence on natural habitats in recent years, more notably to the loss of habitat quality. Increased urbanization, considerable reduction in natural forest areas, changing ecology of fresh water ecosystems, lakes and wet lands, besides changing microhabitats, have had their impact on insect populations. A wide range of responses exist among several species of insects living in these changing environments, more especially landscape dynamics creating a shifting mosaic of habitats. Sudden changes in the extent or quality of habitat tend to influence the behaviour, reproduction and survival of individuals....
