Behavioral Ecology of Insect Parasitoids: From Theoretical Approaches to Field Applications; Contents; Contributors; Preface; Part 1 Current issues in behavioral ecology of insect parasitoids; 1 Optimal foraging behavior and efficient biological control methods; 2 Parasitoid fitness: from a simple idea to an intricate concept; 3 Parasitoid foraging and oviposition behavior in the field; 4 Behavior influences whether intra-guild predation disrupts herbivore suppression by parasitoids; 5 Chemical and behavioral ecology in insect parasitoids: how to behave optimally in a complex odorous environment
6 Parasitoid and host nutritional physiology in behavioral ecology7 Food-searching in parasitoids: the dilemma of choosing between 'immediate' or future fitness gains; 8 Information acquisition, information processing, and patch time allocation in insect parasitoids; 9 Competition and asymmetric wars of attrition in insect parasitoids; 10 Risk assessment and host exploitation strategies in insect parasitoids; Part 2 Extension of behavioral ecology of insect parasitoids to other fields; 11 Multitrophic interactions and parasitoid behavioral ecology 12 Parasitoid sex ratios and biological control13 Linking foraging and dynamics; 14 Linking behavioral ecology to the study of host resistance and parasitoid counter-resistance; Part 3 Methodological issues in behavioral ecology; 15 State-dependent problems for parasitoids: case studies and solutions; 16 A Bayesian approach to optimal foraging in parasitoids; 17 Finding optimal behaviors with genetic algorithms; 18 Statistical tools for analyzing data on behavioral ecology of insect parasitoids; Index |
