Written by a team of leading international specialists, "Behavioral
Ecology of Insect Parasitoids" examines the optimal behaviors that
parasitoids exhibit in order to maximize long term offspring
production. It is an essential reference for research scientists
and students studying these fascinating insects or for anyone
involved in using parasitoids in biological control programs.
Reviews topical issues, including cutting edge research on
parasitoid decision making and the implications for biological
control
Explores applications in other fields, provides information on the
latest research methods, and includes helpful case studies and
statistical tools
Creates a deeper understanding of the link between behavioural
strategies and host mortality, resulting in more efficient
selective pest management programs
"Overall, this is a fascinating volume that provides a
significant contribution to the literature on parasitoid insects.
It goes a long way toward providing insights into numerous aspects
of parasitoid behavior and will stimulate a diversity of future
projects, something that should be the goal of any such text. I
highly recommend Wajnberg et al. for all of those working on the
biology or evolution of parasitoids." "Palaios 2009"
