A hardback review series which draws together information about agriculturally important animals, both beneficial and injurious - information which is at present scattered throughout many primary research journals. Each volume contains 9 or 10 up-to-date review articles written by internationally-acknowledged experts.These volumes will be particularly useful to agricultural zoologists and applied biologists worldwide, and to academic staff and students who are concerned with biology and environmental science, at both undergraduate and post-graduate levels.
