Animal pathology & diseasesJune 2013Encyclopedia of Medical and Veterinary Entomology
by Richard C Russell, Domenico Otranto, Richard Wall
Arthropod transmitted infections continue to be a front-line issue in all regions of the world. Understanding the insects that transmit diseases, the mechanisms of infection and the resulting diseases is vital to doctors, veterinarians, public health workers and disease control agencies. This major reference examines the biology, classification and control of arthropods that cause disease in animals and humans. The morphology, taxonomy and phylogeny of fleas, flies, lice, mites, midges, mosquitoes and ticks are described, with descriptions of their medical and veterinary significance, diseases they cause, insect distribution and global disease spread. Updated, developed and reworked from Doug Kettle's seminal Medical and Veterinary Entomology, this major new reference presents vital information in encyclopedia format, with alphabetical entries and an extensive index to make key facts easy to find. This new treatment of the subject provides accessible content and up-to-date research, illustrated by line drawings and colour photographs.

Fertilizers & manuresNovember 2006No Tillage Seeding in Conservation Agriculture
by C J Baker, Scott E Justice, Keith E Saxton, Peter Hobbs, William R Ritchie, W C T Chamen, Don C Reicosky, Fatima Ribeiro
This book is a much-expanded and updated edition of a previous volume, published in 1996 as "No-tillage Seeding: Science and Practice". The base objective remains to describe, in lay terms, a range of international experiments designed to examine the causes of successes and failures in no-tillage. The book summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of no tillage. It highlights the pros and cons of a range of features and options, without promoting any particular product.Topics added or covered in more detail in the second edition include:* soil carbon and how its retention or sequestration interacts with tillage and no-tillage* controlled traffic farming as an adjunct to no-tillage* comparison of the performance of generic no-tillage opener designs* the role of banding fertilizer in no-tillage* the economics of no-tillage* small-scale equipment used by poorer farmers* forage cropping by no-tillage* a method for risk assessment of different levels of machine sophistication

Science & MathematicsNovember 2016Keys to the Tropical Fruit Flies of South-East Asia
(Tephritidae: Dacinae)
by Richard A I Drew, Meredith C Romig
Fruit flies are a major issue facing horticultural producers, and as global warming and species migration become more prevalent issues there is an urgent need for easy identification of these pests. A companion volume to the recently published “Tropical Fruit Flies of South-East Asia (Tephritidae: Dacinae)”, this book provides fully-illustrated keys for the identification of all currently-known Dacinae fruit flies. Focusing on south-east Asian fauna, it covers areas including India, Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, China, Taiwan, Japan, the Philippines, Palau, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. This major new reference work is produced by experts with over 80 years' combined research experience, and through simple identification information can help prevent these major pest species being introduced to new geographical areas. Of particular value to agriculture and quarantine officers responsible for the detection of new incursions, where early detection is both economical and essential to guarantee eradication, this book is also a valuable resource for researchers and students of agriculture and entomology. ; A companion to “Tropical Fruit Flies of South-East Asia (Tephritidae: Dacinae)”, this book provides fully-illustrated keys for the identification of all currently-known Dacinae fruit flies. Focusing on south-east Asian fauna, it aims to help prevent these pests being introduced to new geographical areas using simple identification information. ; 1: Introduction2: Species responses to male lures3: Morphological characters used to identify species of Dacini1: Keys to Genera, Subgenera and Species of Dacini4: Key to Genera in Tribe Dacini (including Genus Ichneumonopsis Hardy)5: Key to Subgenera in Genus Bactrocera (including Subgenera Afrodacus Bezzi and Nesodacus Perkins)6: Key to Subgenera in Genus Dacus2: Genus Bactrocera Macquart7: Key to species in Subgenus Asiadacus Perkins8: Key to species in Subgenus Bactrocera Macquart9: Key to species in dorsalis complex10: Key to species in nigrotibialis complex11: Key to species in Subgenus Bulladacus Drew & Hancock12: Key to species in Subgenus Daculus Speiser13: Key to species in Subgenus Gymnodacus Munro14: Key to species in Subgenus Hemigymnodacus Hardy15: Key to species in Subgenus Javadacus Hardy16: Key to species in Subgenus Papuodacus Drew17: Key to species in Subgenus Paradacus Perkins18: Key to species in Subgenus Parasinodacus Drew & Romig19: Key to species in Subgenus Paratridacus Shiraki20: Key to species in Subgenus Parazeugodacus Shiraki21: Key to species in Subgenus Semicallantra Drew22: Key to species in Subgenus Sinodacus Zia23: Key to species in Subgenus Tetradacus Miyake24: Key to species in Subgenus Zeugodacus Hendel25: Key to species in scutellaris complex26: Key to species in tau complex3: Genus Dacus Fabricius27: Key to species in Genus Dacus Fabricius (including Subgenera Callantra Walker, Didacus Collart, Leptoxyda Macquart, Mellesis Bezzi and Neodacus Perkins)4: Genus Monacrostichus Bezzi28: Key to species in Genus Monacrostichus BezziAppendix I: Subgeneric changes proposed since the publication of Drew & Romig (2013)

Insects (entomology)December 2013Tropical Fruit Flies of South-East Asia
(Tephritidae: Dacinae)
by Richard A I Drew, Meredith C Romig
As global warming and species migration become more prevalent issues, there is an urgent need for a text that provides comprehensive taxonomic details and geographic distributions of Dacinae fruit flies within south-east Asia. In particular, some of the major pest species of this region are being introduced on a regular basis to new geographical areas, causing widespread food security issues and economic hardship. Quarantine and horticultural organisations require detailed information on these fruit fly species in order to detect and eradicate any new incursions. This major new reference work details the taxonomic research into the subfamily Dacinae, which contains the tropical fruit flies of south-east Asia, as well as many other regions of the world. While focusing on south-east Asian fauna, all known species are included, through a study of the type material available in museums around the world. Specimens collected in major surveys conducted across Asia from 1983 to present have also been used to ensure a complete, in-depth review of this subfamily. Providing complete descriptions and artwork of all species of Dacinae recorded from the south-east Asian region for the first time, this book is written and illustrated by experts with over 80 years' combined research experience. Areas covered include: India, Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, China, Taiwan, Japan, the Philippines, Palau, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. It is an essential reference for departments of agriculture, researchers and students of entomology and quarantine, horticultural and chemical industry personnel worldwide. Key features: - 120 recently discovered species - 500 detailed drawings - Revision of all known species - Updated geographical distributions and host records - Accurate list and detailed information of all known pest species This book will be followed by Keys to Fruit Flies of South-East Asia.
