Diversity, Composition And Seasonal Variation (Coleoptera-Scarabaeidae) In Dung Beetle Fauna In And Around Jabalpur (M.P)
Author: Dr. Sanjay Kumar
Publisher: Ashok Yakkaldevi
ISBN: 1387556428
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 175
Book Description
The dung beetle fauna richness are very high in tropical regions of the world, mainly, the African and South-East Asian regions. Dung beetle occur throughout the world (except Antarctica) comprising approximately 7000 species. The dung beetles (scarabaeoid) are a member of the order Coleoptera. Scarabaeidae is one of the taxonomically richest group of beetles with many representatives worldwide among the coleopteran families. Scarabaeidae, family of dung beetle in India includes the subfamilies like, Scarabaeinae, Aphodiinae, Geotrupinae, Hybosorinae, Orphininae, Chironinae and Dynamopinae. Dung beetles measure from 3 to 70 mm long and usually are brown or black; sometimes they have a metallic luster. The name (dung-beetles) has been earned by them through their most universal utilization of animal dung as food for themselves, and for their larvae, though, some species for dung beetle larvae are feed upon the other diets, such as, carrion, fungi, other decaying vegetable matters etc., too. The beetles differ in their feeding habits and accordingly, can be categorized into their distinct sub groups.

ISBN: 0429592019
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 473
Book Description
Insects are the most interesting and diverse group of organisms on earth, many of which are useful as pollinators of crops and wild plants while others are useful as natural enemies keeping pestiferous insects in check. It is important to conserve these insects for our survival and for this the diversity of insect species inhabiting the different ecosystems of our country must be known. The cornerstone to studies of any kind of organismal diversity is their taxonomic identity. Even after over two and half centuries of studies, so little is known of the insect wealth of our country. It has contributions from taxonomists who have been studying Indian insects for long, this book offers up to date information on many important groups of Indian insects seeking to fill the lacuna of a long felt need for a comprehensive work on the taxonomy of Indian insects. Salient features: Provides an up-to-date taxonomy of major insect groups of India Presents identification keys with illustrations of several important groups of Indian insects Gives a new insight into why insects are so abundant Addresses fundamental questions in mechanoreception and cross kingdom interactions using insects as model systems Indian Insects: Diversity and Science is a festschrift to Professor C. A. Viraktamath, an insect taxonomist par excellence. It has been designed to cater to the needs of academicians, researchers and students who wish to identify insects collected from local environments and will be an invaluable aid for those working in the areas of systematics, ecology, behaviour, diversity and the conservation of insects.
