| Summary |
"Insect Sampling in Forest Ecosystems highlights the problems faced by entomologists working in forest ecosystems. It suggests ways in which their methodology can be modified so as to be understood by ecologists and become accepted within the general fields of ecology and entomology." "This book will be essential reading for advanced students and researchers as well as teachers across the whole spectrum of education"--BOOK JACKET |
