In some ways, this task has been a difficult one because conceptually it is virtually impossible to limit a discussion of insect ecology to the tropics, since the same concepts, theories, and hypoth- eses concerning the mechanisms by which habitats support insect populations often apply both to temperate and to tropical regions. Thus one might argue effectively that a book such as Peter Price‘s Insect Ecology represents a more comprehensive treatment of insect ecology, including the tropical aspects. Yet because there has been a tremendous amount of new study on insects in the tropics in recent years, and because there has also been a strong historical interest in tropical insects, judging from early museum expeditions and medically and agriculturally oriented studies of insects in the New and Old World tropics, I believe there is a place for a book dealing almost exclusively with tropical insects. But logically so, such a book by necessity incorporates data and informa- tion from Temperate Zone studies, if for no other reason than because insights into th | 出版日期 | Book 1982 | 關鍵詞 | Adaptation; agriculture; behavior; biology; coevolution; development; ecology; environment; evolution; fauna; | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4684-1113-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4684-1115-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4684-1113-3 | copyright | Plenum Press, New York 1982 |
