Book Description
Handbook of Agricultural Entomology by Helmut van Emdenis a landmark publication for students and practitioners ofentomology applied to agriculture and horticulture. It can be usedas a reference and as a general textbook. The book opens with a general introduction to entomology andincludes coverage of the major insects (and mites) that cause harmto crops, livestock and humans. The important beneficial speciesare also included. Organisms are described in a classification ofinsect Orders and Families. The emphasis is on morphologicalcharacters of major taxonomic divisions, “spotcharacters” for the recognition of Families, and the lifehistories, damage symptoms and economic importance of the variouspest species. The book is beautifully illustrated in full colour with morethan 400 figures showing both the organisms and the damage causedto plants with diagnostic characters indicated by arrows. Coverageis world-wide and includes much material stemming from the vastpersonal experience of the author.

Book Description
The book on Agricultural Entomology is a revolutionary publication for researchers and students entomology. It can be conveniently used as a ready reference and as a broad-spectrum textbook. First five chapters of the book introduce the audience with fundamental concepts of entomology, features of insects, classification of insects and impacts of environmental conditions on insects and vice-versa. Last three chapters of the book deal with plant disease transmission by insects and integrated pest management techniques. Insect pests are causing in a severe economic loss to essential crops globally. However, the control of insect pests has made a key contribution to IPM (integrated pest management) in the world. This book is aimed at presenting the fundamental knowledge about Agricultural Entomology in a simple manner. The text essentially covers the main conceptual paradigms in agricultural entomology which include Economic significance of insects, morphological function and structures, development and growth, behavior and ecology, social insects, feeding habits, beneficial insects, post-harvest losses of grain, classification of insects, integrated pest management (IPM) and practical applications of IPM. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of insects and their impacts on environment and human health. The detailed discussion about different classes of insects and their characteristics is also presented in the book. Pest management techniques are also outlined in the book to provide beneficial information to farmers and land owners. This book is intended for general audience but can be effectively used by readers from agricultural and pest management backgrounds.

Book Description
A full understanding of the biology and life histories of pest species is vital for all those involved in crop production and crop protection. This important new title provides comprehensive coverage of major insect and mite pest species, primarily in Northern Europe. Textbook of Agricultural Entomology is broadly divided into two parts. The first part covers the external and internal features of the major insect and mite pest families, while the second part provides detailed descriptions of major pest species including information on life history stages (vital information when considering control methods) and the crops which these species attack.
