Book Synopsis Australian Lauxaniid Flies by : SP Kim
Download or read book Australian Lauxaniid Flies written by SP Kim and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lauxaniidae are one of the largest families of acalyptrate Diptera (series Schizophora) and are distributed in all the major zoogeographical regions of the world. Early taxonomic work on the family began in Europe and some notable studies were done during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Since then few significant revisions on regional faunas have been undertaken. There are 142 recognized genera and about 1550 described species in the world fauna of Lauxaniidae as compiled from available references (Shewell 1965, 1977, 1986, 1987; Stuckenberg 1971a; Miller 1977a,c, 1980; Papp 1984a, 1984b; Yarom 1986; Evenhuis and Okadome 1989; Hirashima 1989; Broadhead 1989; Sasakawa and Pong 1990; Colless and McAlpine 1991; Sasakawa 1992; Silva, pers. comm.). The family has been divided into two subfamilies distinguished principally by the costal form: Homoneurinae Stuckenberg 1971 having a homoneuriform costa (its spinules stop abruptly at or just before the apex of R4 + 5) and Lauxaniinae Shewell 1977 with a sapromyziform costa (the spinules stop well before the apex of R4+ 5).
Book Synopsis Australian Lauxaniid Flies by : Se Pyong Kim
Download or read book Australian Lauxaniid Flies written by Se Pyong Kim and published by CSIRO Publishing. This book was released on 1994 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lauxaniidae are one of the largest families of acalyptrate Diptera (series Schizophora) and are distributed in all the major zoogeographical regions of the world. There are 142 recognized genera and about 1550 described species in the world fauna of Lauxaniidae as compiled from available references. The majority of the Australian lauxaniids were described by Malloch during the 1920s, but taxonomic study of the Australian Lauxaniidae in general has been neglected for more than 50 years. The aim of this book is to achieve a major taxonomic revision for the study group primarily using traditional descriptive methods, in which taxa are grouped by morphological features; then, by employing a range of numerical taxonomic methods, to find phenetic patterns that might confirm or discredit the groupings produced by traditional methods.

Book Synopsis The Flowering of Australia's Rainforests by : Geoff Williams
Download or read book The Flowering of Australia's Rainforests written by Geoff Williams and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2010-03-01 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Flowering of Australia's Rainforests provides an overview of pollination in Australian rainforests, especially subtropical rainforests. It also examines the plant-pollinator relationships found in rainforests worldwide. The Flowering of Australia's Rainforests progresses through introductory and popular sections that cover pollination in lore and legend; plant and flower evolution and development; and the role and function of colour, fragrance and form. Later chapters deal with breeding systems; mimicry; spatial, temporal and structural influences on plant-pollinator interactions; and a discussion and overview of floral syndromes. The book concludes with a section on conservation and fragmentation, and individual plant pollination case studies. Illustrated with colour photographs of major species, this reference work will be treasured by field naturalists, ecologists, conservation biologists, botanists, ecosystem managers, environmentalists, community groups and individuals involved in habitat restoration, students, and those with a broad interest in natural history.
Book Synopsis Insects of South-Eastern Australia by : Roger Farrow
Download or read book Insects of South-Eastern Australia written by Roger Farrow and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2016-05 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A walk in the bush reveals insects visiting flowers, patrolling the air, burrowing under bark and even biting your skin. Every insect has characteristic feeding preferences and behaviours. Insects of South-Eastern Australia is a unique field guide that uses host plants and behavioural attributes as the starting point for identifying insects. Richly illustrated with colour photographs, the different species of insects found in Australia’s temperate south-east, including plant feeders, predators, parasites and decomposers, are presented. The guide is complemented by an introduction to the insects of the region, including their environment, classification, life history, feeding strategies and behaviour. Fascinating boxes on camouflage, mimicry and many other topics are also included throughout. Whether you are a field naturalist, entomologist or just want to know what’s in your backyard, Insects of South-Eastern Australia will help you to identify the insects most likely to be encountered, as well as understand the basics of their ecology and behaviour.
Book Synopsis Life Cycle and Development of Diptera by : Muhammad Sarwar
Download or read book Life Cycle and Development of Diptera written by Muhammad Sarwar and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-09-23 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diptera, or true flies, are of considerable economic importance, as these flies have a valuable role as scavengers, parasitoids and predators of other insects, pollinators, food for predators, bio-indicators of water quality, and tools for scientific research. In nine chapters, this book examines various aspects of flies of the order Diptera as well as some types of mosquitos and midges. Topics covered include taxonomy, phylogeny, life cycle, feeding habits, population control strategies, and more. A unique chapter on forensic entomology is particularly interesting. Beautifully illustrated and expertly researched, this volume will appeal to entomologists, biologists, and naturalists.
Book Synopsis The Invertebrate World of Australia's Subtropical Rainforests by : Geoff Williams
Download or read book The Invertebrate World of Australia's Subtropical Rainforests written by Geoff Williams and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Invertebrate World of Australia’s Subtropical Rainforests is a comprehensive review of Australia’s Gondwanan rainforest invertebrate fauna, covering its taxonomy, distribution, biogeography, fossil history, plant community and insect–plant relationships. This is the first work to document the invertebrate diversity of this biologically important region, as well as explain the uniqueness and importance of the organisms. This book examines invertebrates within the context of the plant world that they are dependent on and offers an understanding of Australia’s outstanding (but still largely unknown) subtropical rainforests. All major, and many minor, invertebrate taxa are described and the book includes a section of colour photos of distinctive species. There is also a strong emphasis on plant and habitat associations and fragmentation impacts, as well as a focus on the regionally inclusive Gondwana Rainforests (Central Eastern Rainforest Reserves of Australia) World Heritage Area. The Invertebrate World of Australia’s Subtropical Rainforests will be of value to professional biologists and ecologists, as well as amateur entomologists and naturalists in Australia and abroad.
