Rezensionen

"This volume provides an aptly timed interdisciplinary review on aspects of bark beetle physiology, especially how it relates to selecting, colonizing, and surviving in host trees. Overall, these reviews will be valuable to students and researchers seeking fundamental information about these devastating insects." --The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol.92, No. 4
