Cell biology is moving at breakneck speed, and many of the results
from studies on insects have helped in understanding some of the
central problems of biology. The time is therefore ripe to provide
the scientific community with a series of up-to-date, well
illustrated reviews of selected aspects of the sub microscopic
cytology of insects. The topics we have included fall into four
general groups: seven chapters deal with gametogenesis, four
concern develop ing somatic cells, seventeen chapters describe
specialized tissues and organs, and three chapters cover cells in
pathological states. These accounts are illustrated with over 600
electron micrographs. The more than 1100 pages in the two volumes
of Insect Ultrastructure combined labors of 49 dedicated
contributors from II countries. represent the These authors have
digested and critically summarized a very large body of
information, and some measure of this effort can be gained from
consulting the bibliographies that close each of the 31 chapters.
These contain 2400 publica tions authored by 1500 different
scientists. However, before we congratulate ourselves on the
advanced state of our knowledge, it is worth remembering that
representatives of less than 0.01 % of the known species of insects
have been examined with the electron microscope.
