A Selected Bibliography of the Coccoidea
Author: Louise May Russell
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Scale insects
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
The second supplement cites the important literature on the classification of coccids that appeared between January 1, 1963, the cutoff date of the first supplement, and December 31, 1969. In addition, it includes numerous earlier articles that were omitted from the previous bibliographies but that are now available and appear to be relevant. This supplement also corrects the few errors in authorship, dates, volume numbers, and pages that have been noted in the former bibliographies.

Encyclopedia of Scale Insect Pests
Author: Takumasa Kondo
Publisher: CABI
ISBN: 1800620640
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 636
Book Description
Scale insects feed on plant juices and can easily be transported to new countries on live plants. They sometimes become invasive pests, costing billions of dollars in damage to crops worldwide annually, and farmers try to control them with toxic pesticides, risking environmental damage. Fortunately, scale insects are highly susceptible to control by natural enemies so biological control is possible. They have unique genetic systems, unusual metamorphosis, a broad spectrum of essential symbionts, and some are sources of commercial products like red dyes, shellac and wax. There is, therefore, wide interest in these unusual, destructive, beneficial, and abundant insects. The Encyclopedia of Scale Insect Pests is the most comprehensive work on worldwide scale insect pests, providing detailed coverage of the most important species (230 species in 26 families, 36% of the scale insect pest species known). Advice is provided on collection, preservation, slide-mounting, vouchering, and labelling of specimens, fully illustrated with colour photographs, diagrams and drawings.

Evolution of the Insects
Author: David Grimaldi
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 110726877X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 790
Book Description
Insects are the most diverse group of organisms in the 3 billion-year history of life on Earth, and the most ecologically dominant animals on land. This book chronicles for the first time the complete evolutionary history of insects: their living diversity, relationships and 400 million years of fossils. Whereas other volumes have focused on either living species or fossils, this is the first comprehensive synthesis of all aspects of insect evolution. The book is illustrated with 955 photo- and electronmicrographs, drawings, diagrams, and field photos, many in full colour and virtually all of them original. The book will appeal to anyone engaged with insect diversity: professional entomologists and students, insect and fossil collectors, and naturalists.

Potential Invasive Pests of Agricultural Crops
Author: Jorge E. Peña
Publisher: CABI
ISBN: 1845938291
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 460
Book Description
Invasive arthropods cause significant damage in agricultural crops and natural environments across the globe. Potentially threatened regions need to be prepared to prevent new pests from becoming established. Therefore, information on pest identity, host range, geographical distribution, biology, tools for detection and identification are all essential to researchers and regulatory personnel. This book focuses on the most recent invasive pests of agricultural crops in temperate subtropical and tropical areas and on potential invaders, discussing their spread, biology and control.
