How is the staggering biodiversity of the parasitoid insects
maintained? This book, first published in 1994, explores patterns
in host-parasitoid interactions, including parasitoid community
richness, the importance of parasitoids as mortality factors, and
their impact on host densities as determined by the outcomes of
parasitoid introductions for biological control. It documents
general patterns using data sets generated from the global
literature and evaluates potential underlying biological,
ecological and evolutionary mechanisms. A theme running throughout
the book is the importance of host refuges as a major constraint on
host-parasitoid interactions. Much can be learnt from the analysis
of broad patterns; a few simple rules can go a long way in
explaining the major components of these interactions. This book
will be an invaluable resource for researchers interested in
community ecology, population biology, entomology and biological
control.
