In the last decades a remarkable renaissance has materialized in insect morphology, mainly triggered by the development of new cutting-edge technologies.
Das schönste Schmetterlingsbuch unserer ZeitNach ihren beiden erfolgreichen, hochgelobten Büchern »Von seltenen Vögeln« und »Das botanische Schauspiel« widmet sich Anita Albus in ihrem neuen Buch einer der faszinierendsten Erscheinungen der Natur: den Schmetterlingen.
Extrait : "On ne doit s'attendre à trouver dans les plus riches collections ornithologiques et entomologiques, à plus forte raison dans les quelques pages qui vont suivre, qu'un faible aperçu du monde de l'air : monde infini comme celui de la mer, et qui, pour arriver à l'insecte et à l'oiseau, commence par des milliards de milliards de corpuscules invisibles, poussière impalpable qui se mêle aux molécules gazeuses.
This revised and updated edition of Ladybirds provides a succinct but comprehensive and accessible overview of the biology of ladybirds and their parasites, focusing on ecology in an evolutionary context.
The chemical study of insects has been growing for four decades, and with it an interest in how insects make their pheromones, hormones, defensive secretions, venoms, pigments and surface coverings.
There has been a large increase in the commercial use of integrated crop/pest management methods for pest and disease control on a wide range of crops throughout the world since the first edition of this book.
Technology for modifying the genotypes and phenotypes of insects and other arthropods has steadily progressed with the development of more precise and powerful methods, most prominently transgenic modification.

This book brings together expert opinions from scientists to consider the evidence for climate change and its impacts on ticks and tick-borne infections.
Nematodes are incontestably the most numerous and the most diverse metazoans in freshwater habitats, and these properties bestow exceptional significance to their role in the environment.
