Beskrivelse
-- Beat Wermelinger has been researching forest insects for 25 years. This book also showcases his impressive photography, taken from his archive of more than 14,000 insect pictures. In addition to conveying knowledge, the author also reveals the aesthetics and subtleties of this often unknown and seemingly strange group of animals. The book not only presents the importance of insects, but also intrigues and surprises the reader-- The recently reported loss of insect biomass has increased awareness of the importance of insects and will stimulate public as well as professional and academic interest in this book. The book deals with many topical insect groups (like bark beetles) that increase its relevance in today's era of climatic shifts and insect outbreaks. -- This is the only book on the importance of forest insects published for a non-American market. It will be adoptable on undergraduate and graduate entomological courses (Insects and Ecology modules) as well as having both professional and public appeal.
