Chemical ecology of insects 2 - R. T. Carde

During the past decade, the study of the chemical structures
used by insects has advanced from a subject that could be reviewed in
a single volume to a vastly more advanced level. This important new
volume brings together a focused group of reviews that offer
perspective on the most interesting advances in insect chemical
ecology.

Chemical Ecology of Insects 2 brings together an internationally
respected group of experts covering such topics as chemoreception and
integration, orientation mechanisms, plant-insect interactions
and insect-insect interactions. An important benefit of these
reviews lies in the identification of the boundaries of our current
knowledge and the most profitable areas in which we should expect
these areas to develop.

This important work will appeal to entomologists and ecologists
working directly with insects. In addition, plant scientists
interested in the interaction of plants and insects will find much
valuable information. The book is intended to benefit both field and
laboratory researchers as well as advanced students.
