Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the History and Natural Arrangement of Insects The shellfish above insects, we may strengthen what we have here said by the sentiments of others whose writings have exhibited entomology in its most attractive garb. What unsophisticated mind, not entangled in the trammels of_ system, when it surveys the industry, the various proceedings, and the almost miraculous works of insects, - the waxen palaces of the bee, the paper cottages of the wasp and hornet, the crowded me tropolis of the white ants, the arts, the manufactures, the stratagems of other insects, the associations and labours for the common good of those which are gregarious, will not at once conclude that they must be a superior race to the slug, the snail, and others, which live only to eat and propagate their kind l* Again, it has been well observed that the station which any particular group of animals holds in the scale of creation must be judged of, not by a fancied and often forced resemblance to the human structure as the only standard, but according to the ingenuity displayed in their organisation, and the variety of effects which may depend on it.'i' The most 3 careless observer, indeed, is well aware that many of the vertebrate animals are far inferior to insects, both in their instincts and the complexity of their structure. The vertebrate and the annulose divisions being thus the two most perfect classes in the animal kingdom, it necessarily results that they follow and blend into each other. We accordingly find, that the two circles touch at those points where the eel-shaped fishes come into contact with the Annelides, ' or red blooded worms the affinity of these groups being now so universally admitted, that we need not defend the theory of their union. On the other hand, the Annulosa are connected to the Radiata by means of the harm cles, whose long, stems, rendered pliable by innumerable articulations, at once place them within the definition.

Download or read book Genetic Structure and Local Adaptation in Natural Insect Populations written by Susan Mopper and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-03-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing an essential foundation for evolutionary theory, this comprehensive volume examines patterns of genetic variation within natural insect populations, and explores the underlying mechanisms that lead to the genetic divergence of coexisting organisms. In particular, the text investigates current research on finescale genetic structure in natural insect populations. Internationally renowned scientists offer a wealth of current information not previously published. Part I present case studies of adaptive genetic structure in natural insect populations, including a critical discussion of the strenghts and weaknesses of the experimental methods employed. Part II addresses the ecological mechanisms that produce adaptive genetic structure in natural insect populations. Part III describes how behavioral and life-history patterns influence genetic structure. Finally, Part IV combines theoretical and empirical approaches linking genetic structure at the population level with larger-scale patterns of variation, such as host race formation and speciation. This broad-ranging, interdisciplinary source of information supplies a thorough examination of the mechanisms that promote and impede genetic structure in natural insect populations. It is a book that will be of interest to undergraduate and graduate students, and to researchers in the fields of ecology, evolution, insect and plant systems, entomology, and population genetics.
