Tropical Forest Insect Pests, first published in 2007, promotes a
better theoretical understanding of pest population dynamics, and
causes of forest insect outbreaks in the tropics. Covering pests of
both natural forests and plantations, it examines the diversity of
tropical forest insects; their ecological functions; the concept of
pests; and the incidence of pests in natural forests, plantations,
and stored timber. General issues on which foresters and forest
entomologists hold strong traditional views, such as the severity
of pest incidence in plantations vs. natural forests, in
plantations of exotics vs. indigenous tree species, and in
monocultures vs. mixed plantations are discussed. The final section
looks in detail at specific insect pests of the common plantation
tree species across the tropics, with recommendations for their
control. This is a comprehensive resource suitable for graduate
students and researchers in forestry and tropical forest
entomology, and for forest plantation managers in the tropics.
