Book Description
The present book is a novel attempt to make available the students an exhaustive, interesting and valuable information on the subject of Economic Zoology. All kinds of animal pathogens such as protozoans, helminths, nematodes, mites and ticks and household insects, directly or indirectly causing diseases in other animals including humans, have been described in detail covering every aspect of their life history along with the symptoms appearing on the hosts, and their prevention, control and cure. Furthermore, along with the animal pathogens mentioned above, plant pathogens, such as insects, acting as pests of a variety of crops have also been described in full detail. Apart from the harmful effects, animals are also beneficial to mankind. This seems to be justified when we go through the chapters relating to apiculture, lac culture and sericulture along with fisheries, prawn culture, pearl culture, cattle farming, pig farming and poultry farming. In the second edition, the book introduces a section on 'Protozoans and Soil Fertility'. Besides, Multiple Choice Questions have been appended in each chapter to help students analysing the area of their strengths and weaknesses. Key Features Chapters enriched with photomicrographs present a realistic description. Exclusive life cycle diagrams of pathogens are helpful in understanding important events of their life. Exhaustive coverage of the subject matter helps students to understand the concepts with clarity and provide a wide range of information in a single volume. Chapter-end review questions help students to prepare for the examinations and assess their subject knowledge.

Book Description
Recently Applied and Economic Zoology has been included in national syllabus by UGC for undergraduates. The book examines insect pests, animal pests, natural enemies, beneficial insects, beneficial animals, agricultural chemicals and more. The current book is blueprint for undergraduate students to aware about our natural wild life and its economic importance. The book contains four chapters with illustrations and boxed materials. In the chapter 1, we have covered parasitology, in which we have deliberately discussed about parasites of domestic animals and human, structures, life cycles, pathogenicity, diseases, symptoms and it control. In chapter 2, we consciously talk about vectors and pests. Here, we covered life cycle and control of pest and vectors such as Gundhi bug, Sugarcane leafhopper, Rodents, Termites and Mosquitoes. Chapter 3 is about animal breeding and animal cultures. In this, we stared with basic introduction about breeding and culture, difference between them and then detailed discussion about Animals and Human Society, Animal Breeding, Genetic engineering applications in Animal Breeding, Breeding and Variation, Aquaculture, Pisciculture, Poultry farming, Sericulture, Apiculture, Lac-culture. The last chapter has wild life of India. In this chapter we provided detail for Wild Life Protection and Acts, Documentation of Wild Life, Rare, Endangered and Endemic species, Protected Area Network, Conservation of Wild Life, In-situ and Ex-situ conservation.
