How Insects Build, Engineer, and Shape Their World

Insect Architecture

The Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens): Sustainable Applications in Food, Feed, and Beyond is an interdisciplinary work that compiles the latest research on an insect poised to revolutionize the future of food and agriculture. Authored by an international team of experts, this book is an indispensable resource for entomologists, food scientists, zoologists, and veterinarians. It delves into how the black soldier fly, one of the seven insect species permitted by European Union regulations for animal feed, can convert organic matter into nutrient-rich larval biomass. The book explores the biology and behavior of Hermetia illucens, providing a foundational understanding of the insect. It then discusses farming and production methods, followed by various applications, including its nutritional and health benefits as food and feed, and its potential in bio-packaging and energy production. This comprehensive guide offers valuable insights into the transformative potential of this unique bio-converter.

Sustainable Applications in Food, Feed, and Beyond

The Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens)

This textbook is the first to teach insect physiology and biology specifically to students lacking a strong background in biochemistry and molecular biology. Supported with high-quality figures, end-of-chapter review questions and PowerPoint slides for use in teaching, it describes the fundamental processes in accessible language.

Essential Insect Physiology

This is an up-to-date and comprehensive handbook that presents a wealth of information on the different aspects of one of the largest dipterous family, Culicidae (Mosquitoes). It presents latest advancements in mosquito control methods, including chemical, biological, herbal, and genetic approaches.

The first edition of Carrion Ecology, Evolution, and Their Applications brought together multiple scientific disciplines to shed light on the importance of carrion within the context of ecology and evolutionary biology, and through applications ranging from human mass disasters to habitat/ecosystem conservation. This second edition builds upon this foundation to include a huge amount of new research, consisting of 33 chapters-9 brand new and the remaining 24 substantially updated and expanded. One of the most significant changes for this edition is the coverage of aquatic ecosystems, both freshwater and marine.The book is now represented by 73 authors from eight countries, incorporating more diverse perspectives and engagement into this multidisciplinary and expanding science. The resulting new edition showcases a broader scope of topics, geographic areas, ecosystems and history of carrion ecology, evolution, and their applications for humanity. It provides the most comprehensive resource on carrion from all ecosystems of the world.The student, academic, and professional will find this book insightful, providing new insights for the fields of molecular ecology, microbiology, entomology, population biology, community and ecosystem ecology, as well as applications in forensics and human and environmental health.

Carrion Ecology, Evolution, and Their Applications

"In Rise of the Zombie Bugs, Mindy Weisberger explores the eerie yet fascinating phenomenon of real-life zombification in the insect class and among other invertebrates. Zombifying parasites reproduce by rewriting their victims' neurochemistry, transforming them into the "walking dead:" armies of cicadas, spiders, and other hosts that helplessly follow a zombifier's commands, living only to serve the parasite's needs until death's sweet release (and often beyond)"

Aedes aegypti: Ecology, Population Control, and Vector-borne Disease Prevention offers a comprehensive exploration of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, a notorious vector responsible for transmitting diseases such as dengue, Zika, and yellow fever. From its biology and ecological behavior to its microbiota and role in global health crises, the book delves deeply into the intricacies of this species. It stands as a valuable resource for researchers, public health officials, and anyone interested in understanding the challenges posed by this resilient mosquito and the innovative measures employed to mitigate its impact on human health. In addition to extensively discussing the mosquito’s role as a vector, the book emphasizes cutting-edge population control strategies, including genetic modifications, microbial interventions, and community-based efforts. It also addresses the global scale of vector-borne diseases, providing actionable insights into prevention methods, surveillance systems, and the urgent need for interdisciplinary collaboration.

Understanding the Impacts on Ecosystems and Societies

Non-Native Species

The go-to guide for identifying grasshoppers and related species that occur in the British isles. Grasshoppers and their allies draw attention to themselves not only by their active movements but also by their bright colours and song. This brand new beautifully illustrated field guide covers the 70 or so species of grasshoppers, cockroaches, stick insects, earwigs and praying mantids that may be encountered in the British countryside. A comprehensive introduction covers life history and field techniques, and is followed by detailed species accounts that include important identification details, along with information on food, habitat, conservation status and range, supplemented with distribution maps, sonograms and life history charts. Together with stunning photographs and Richard Lewington's exceptional artwork, this book is set to become the definitive guide to the orthoptera of the British Isles.

Monographs in Behavior and Ecology

From the acclaimed author of Honeybee Democracy, a classic account of the ecological factors that shape the social lives of honeybees For many years, research on honeybee social life dealt primarily with the physiological processes underlying the social system of the bee rather than the ecological factors that have shaped its societies. Thomas Seeley’s landmark book unites the two approaches, emphasizing ecological studies of honeybee social behavior while also offering fresh perspectives on honeybee behavior and communication. It covers a broad range of topics, from adaptiveness of worker sterility and the economics of nest construction to information-center foraging, individual versus colony level selection, sex ratio evolution, colonial thermoregulation, evolution of colony defense, and adaptive radiation in colony design. Honeybee Ecology presents honeybees as a model system for investigating advanced social life among insects from an evolutionary perspective.
