Download or read book Coleoptera Beetles Morphology and Systematics written by Rolf G. Beutel and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2016-03-21 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a revised edition of the first of three volumes in the Handbook of Zoology series which treats the systematics and biology of Coleoptera. With over 380,000 described species, Coleoptera are by far the most species-rich order of insects and the largest group of animals of comparable geological age. Moreover, numerous species are tremendously important economically. The beetle volumes meet the demand of modern biologists seeking to answer questions about Coleoptera phylogeny, evolution, and ecology. This first Coleoptera volume covers the suborders Archostemata, Myxophaga and Adephaga, and the basal series of Polyphaga, with information on world distribution, biology, morphology of all life stages, phylogeny and comments on taxonomy.

This book was released on 2011-12-22 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first of four volumes in the Handbook of Zoology series which treat the systematics and biology of Coleoptera. With approximately 350,000 described species, Coleoptera are by far the most species-rich order of insects and the largest group of animals of comparable geological age. The beetle volumes will meet the demand of modern biologists seeking to answer questions about Coleoptera phylogeny, evolution, and ecology. This first Coleoptera volume covers the suborders Archostemata, Myxophaga and Adephaga, and the basal series of Polyphaga, with information on world distribution, biology, morphology of all life stages (including anatomy), phylogeny and comments on taxonomy.

Download or read book Ordnung Coleoptera LARVEN written by B. Klausnitzer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-14 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seit der Herausgabe des umfassenden Werkes von GHJLAROV (1964) über die boden bewohnenden Insektenlarven hat sich unser Wissen über Käferlarven bedeutend erweitert. GHJLAROV führt bei gleicher Auffassung der Familien in seinem Familien schlüssel 70 Taxa an (hier 93). Nach den Tabellen der einzelnen Familien sind durch sein Buch ca. 470 Gattungen bestimmbar (hier 653). Außerdem wurden in den vorliegenden Band 16 Familien aufgenommen, für die GHJLAROV keinen Gattungs schlüssel bringt. Es ist nicht möglich gewesen, Tabellen bis zur Art (wie bei GHJLA ROV} aufzunehmen. Für später ist eine Fortführung dieses Buches geplant, und es sollen Bestimmungstabellen bis zu den Arten geschaffen werden. Auf den ersten Blick mag es verwunderlich erscheinen, wenn Familien, die vor wiegend in Pilzen leben (z. B. Mycetophagidae), Bewohner faulenden Holzes (z. B. Serropalpidae) oder Familien, die vorwiegend in der Kraut- und Strauchschicht leben (z. B. Ooccinellidae) in dieses Buch aufgenommen wurden. Tatsächlich ist es aber so, daß alle hier behandelten Familien in Material aus Bodenfallen mehr oder minder regelmäßig gefunden werden. Die eigentlich nicht zur Fauna des Bodens oder der Bodenoberfläche gehörenden Ooccinellidae wurden beispielsweise mit 15,4% aller Käferlarven bei einer Untersuchung über die epigäische Fauna von Fichtenwäldern nachgewiesen. Es wurde darauf verzichtet, dieser Arbeit eine ver gleichende Morphologie der Coleopte;renlarven voranzustellen. Die wesentlichsten Bestimmungsmerkmale werden anschlieQend in einer kurzen Übersicht erläutert. Ziel des vorliegenden Buches ist eine möglichst leichte Diagnose von Käferlarven.

Download or read book Dung Beetle Ecology written by Ilkka Hanski and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many ecosystems dung beetles play a crucial role--both ecologically and economically--in the decomposition of large herbivore dung. Their activities provide scientists with an excellent opportunity to explore biological community dynamics. This collection of essays offers a concise account of the population and community ecology of dung beetles worldwide, with an emphasis on comparisons between arctic, temperate, and tropical species assemblages. Useful insights arise from relating the vast differences in species' life histories to their population and community-level consequences. The authors also discuss changes in dung beetle faunas due to human-caused habitat alteration and examine the possible effects of introducing dung beetles to cattle-breeding areas that lack efficient native species. "With the expansion of cattle breeding areas, the ecology of dung beetles is a subject of great economic concern as well as one of intense theoretical interest. This excellent book represents an up-to-date ecological study covering important aspects of the dung beetle never before presented."--Gonzalo Halffter, Instituto de Ecologia, Mexico City Originally published in 1991. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Download or read book Ichnoentomology written by Jorge Fernando Genise and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-31 with total page 707 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is devoted to the ichnology of insects, and associated trace fossils, in soils and paleosols. The traces described here, mostly nests and pupation chambers, include one of the most complex architectures produced by animals. Chapters explore the walls, shapes and fillings of trace fossils followed by their classifications and ichnotaxonomy. Detailed descriptions and interpretations for different groups of insects like bees, ants, termites, dung beetles and wasps are also provided. Chapters also highlight the the paleoenvironmental significance of insect trace fossils in paleosols for paleontological reconstructions, sedimentological interpretation, and ichnofabrics analysis. Readers will discover how insect trace fossils act as physical evidence for reconstructing the evolution of behavior, phylogenies, past geographical distributions, and to know how insects achieved some of the more complex architectures. The book will appeal to researchers and graduate students in ichnology, sedimentology, paleopedology, and entomology and readers interested in insect architecture.

Download or read book Australian Beetles Volume 2 written by Adam Slipinski and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 793 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This three-volume series represents a comprehensive treatment of the beetles of Australia, a relatively under-studied fauna that includes many unusual and unique lineages found nowhere else on Earth. Volume 2 contains 36 chapters, providing critical information and identification keys to the genera of the Australian beetle families included in suborders Archostemata, Myxophaga, Adephaga and several groups of Polyphaga (Scirtoidea, Hydrophiloidea, Scarabaeoidea, Buprestoidea and Tenebrionidae). Each chapter is richly illustrated in black and white drawings and photographs. The book also includes colour habitus figures for about 1000 Australian beetle genera and subgenera belonging to the families treated in this volume. This volume is a truly international collaborative effort, as the chapters have been written by 23 contributors from Australia, China, Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, Poland and USA.
