Insects and Pollution provides a comprehensive overview of both the
direct and indirect effects of pollution on insects and discusses
the ecological and economic consequences of these changes. The book
reviews studies on pollutant-induced changes in insects classified
according to their trophic position, taxonomy, and developmental
stage. These changes are considered on different spatial and
temporal scales, in different climatic and vegetation zones, and in
different habitats (with emphasis on coniferous forests). The book
also describes the effects of a variety of pollutants on
terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Other topics considered include
the effects of pollutants on insect physiology, ecology and
evolution, and updating and synthesizing data. Insects and
Pollution is the first book to combine entomological and
ecotoxicological perspectives to address the far-ranging effects of
pollution on insects. It is essential reading for entomologists,
ecotoxicologists, conservation biologists, and other professionals
in the environmental sciences.
