Book Synopsis Locust and Grasshopper Fauna (Orthoptera by : Hirdesh Kumar
Download or read book Locust and Grasshopper Fauna (Orthoptera written by Hirdesh Kumar and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-05-11 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All the economically important species of locusts and grasshoppers belong to Superfamily Acridoidea. They constitute an economically important group of Orthopterous pests infesting a number of cultivated and non-cultivated crops and are well known for their destructiveness all over the world. They are serious pests of agricultural crops, pastures and forests. They are also called short-horned grasshoppers in contrast to Ensifera (Tettigonoidea and Grylloidea) or long-horned grasshoppers which constitute one of the other suborder of Orthoptera. Suborder Caelifera is divided into four superfamilies viz. Acridoidea, Tridactyloidea, Tetrigoidea and Eumastacoidea. Acridoidea possess short antennae, usually shorter than the body, a short and stout ovipositor and their tarsi are three-segmented. The other superfamilies of Caelifera are easily recognizable at sight and are not frequently encountered. Superfamily Acridoidea has shown maximum diversity and divided into various families of which family Acrididae is widely distributed in India.The Superfamily Acridoidea constitute the largest and most diverse group amongst the Orthoptera. A very high degree of adaptive radiation in the feeding apparatus of this group of Orthoptera is indicative of their diverse feeding habits. The present proposal was aimed at studying large number of species of Acrididae which were collected from different regions of North India. The status of various characters used in the identification were judged on the basis of their consistency and variation to ascertain their importance in the group. An in-depth study helps in understanding the biodiversity and phylogeny of this group. The identification keys have been prepared to make identification easy. It is hoped that this book will bring the nomenclature of Indian Acrididae up to-date and will be useful to workers both in applied and basic research. The object of this book is to provide taxonomist, economic entomologist, agriculturist, ecologist and others with up to-date information on the valid genera and species along with their distribution in different parts of the country. The distribution of each species are given in the text. The authors have included their own observations on the distribution of Acrididae in North Indian regions which was ignored by earlier workers. The proposal has a great importance from the point of view of both applied and fundamental knowledge. Visualizing the economic importance of these pests the present book has been prepared.Work done and objectives achieved 1. Geographic area under North India have been extensively surveyed and Acridid samples have been collected.2. The collected specimens were studied in detail and described and illustrated taxonomically.3. Genitalic plates of the described taxa have been provided that complement the descriptions.4. Color photographs of the taxa have also been added to the descriptions that ease the identification of the same.5. A master chart depicting total specimens, their distribution, concentration areas, host plants etc. has been provided.6. Host range has been provided along with information on habitat, latitude and altitude..

Book Synopsis The Tettigoniinae by : D. C. F. Rentz
Download or read book The Tettigoniinae written by D. C. F. Rentz and published by Brill Archive. This book was released on 1985-01-01 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with the shield-backed katydids, the Tettigoniinae, covering 17 genera and 72 species. The use of tribes has been disregarded until generic classification is made on a worldwide basis. Introductory chapters provide a wealth of new information about the zoogeography of the subfamily, and on the habitats and biologies of the insects. Dr Rentz has also used oscillograms of the katydids' calling songs to effectively distinguish similar species. Other sections deal with the terminology, collecting and preservation of specimens.

Book Synopsis Ecology and Biogeography of High Altitude Insects by : M.S. Mani
Download or read book Ecology and Biogeography of High Altitude Insects written by M.S. Mani and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In my book Introduction to High Altitude Entomology, published in 1962, I summa rized the results of eight years' studies, mainly on the Himalaya. I have since then had the opportunity of studying the collections of high altitude insects from the Alps, Carpathians, Caucasus, Urals, Alai-Pamirs, Tien Shan, Altai and other im portant mountains of the world in different museums and institutions in Europe. Through the courtesy and generosity of the Academy of Sciences of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, I was also able to personally collect insects and make valuable field observations on the Caucasus, the Alai-Pamirs, Ala-Tau and the Tien Shan mountains. Through comparative studies I have tried to synthesize the fundamental principles of high altitude entomology. I have described here the distinctive characters of the high altitude environment, the ecological specializations of the high altitude insects, their ecological inter relations and the outstanding peculiarities of their biogeography. I have also pre sented here an outline of the high altitude entomology of the principal mountains of the world, with brief accounts of their orogeny, geology and vegetation. This book differs from all other contributions in the field in its comparative ecological approach and in the fact that the main emphasis is throughout on the evolution of the high altitude ecosystem as an integral part of the orogeny. High mountains are, in all parts of the world, important and independent centres of origin and differ entiation of distinctive and highly specialized ecosystems and faunas.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended as a textbook for 3rd year undergraduate students, as well as postgraduate students. It comprises a review of the current opinion regarding the evolution and adaptation of terrestrial arthropods, beginning with the paleontological, embryological, morphological and physiological evidence. The implication of size is then considered in relation to life on land. A discussion of insect phylogeny and the origin of flight is followed by an account of evolutionary trends in reproduction. Further chapters cover adaptations to extreme environments, dispersal and migration, defensive mechanisms and, finally, present arguments for the success of the terrestrial arthropods in general.

Download or read book Insects and Wildlife written by Dr John Capinera and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-09-13 with total page 808 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insects and Wildlife: Arthropods and their Relationships with Wild Vertebrate Animals provides a comprehensive overview of the interrelationships of insects and wildlife. It serves as an introduction to insects and other arthropods for wildlife management and other vertebrate biology students, and emphasizes the importance of insects to wild vertebrate animals. The book emphasizes how insects exert important influences on wildlife habitat suitability and wildlife population sustainability, including their direct and indirect effects on wildlife health. Among the important topics covered are: the importance of insects as food items for vertebrate animals; the role of arthropods as determinants of ecosystem health and productivity; the ability of arthropods to transmit disease-causing agents; an overview of representative disease-causing agents transmitted by arthropods; arthropods as pests and parasites of vertebrates; the hazards to wildlife associated with using using pesticides to protect against insect damage; insect management using techniques other than pesticides; the importance of insect conservation and how insects influence wildlife conservation.
