Heteroptera of Economic Importance
Editorial Reviews
Review
"Carl Schaefer and Antônio Panizzi have been studying this group of arthropods for many years and therefore their experience and expertise have rendered the book highly refined and thorough... Each chapter commences with a concise and clear statement on the economic relevance of the chosen group, followed by a well articulated summary on the biology, behaviour, and ecology of the bugs, a section on prognosis, and a conclusion that identifies the key areas for future research. Students beginning research on the ecology and behaviour of Heteroptera and scientists working in areas of arthropod pest management and biological control will find the comments in the conclusion extremely relevant... The book includes close to 5000 references and that is a major strength... Indices listing plant and insect names are additional strengths of the book... this book will be useful to agricultural, veterinary, and medical entomologists... and ecologists working on the interactions of Heteroptera with plants and animals, in vector biology, and in biological control... From the ecological and biological points of view, the book is so complete that nothing more, I felt, can be added... Schaefer and Panizzi have done an outstanding job by producing an impressive and a highly useful book." - Oriental Insects, Vol. 36, No. 50, 2002
