Beschreibung
Features: The only insect ecology text that emphasizes insect effects on ecosystem properties and services, as well as evolutionary adaptations to environmental conditions. Includes new material on long-term trends in insect abundance, addressing the so-called "insect apocalypse?. Offers crucial updates on mechanisms by which insects affect, and potentially regulate, ecosystem structure and function. Applies ecological principles to improved management of insects for the sustainable delivery of ecosystem services
