Pests of Forest Importance and Their Management is a unique book comprising all the major components of a sylvatic ecosystem from the standpoint of pests of economic importance and their control using both conventional and modern applications. The book is a compilation of 15 specialist articles woven around the central theme of the objective envisaging a variety of forest arthropod pests including both insects and arachnids as well as vertebrates. In addition the book comprises a special dedication chapter on the biography and (entomological) bibliography of Professor Dr. P.K. Sen Sarma possibly the most updated and authoritative account ever penned which is amongst the most stimulating contributions likely to profusely ignite the minds of young and enthusiastic researchers in the country engaged in forest entomology. The book written in a lucid and clearly comprehensible style consists f closely knitted articles on taxonomy biology economic forestry ecology biogeography prevention and control of the forest products from the pest attack which all make an interesting reading and will hopefully serve a good purpose of a reference work for both a serious researcher and the amateur naive enthusiast. The book is dedicated to the fond memory of Prof. Dr. P.K. Sen Sarma the doyen of forest entomology and patron of Indian isopterology and is expected to enthuse a large number of scientists research scholars and academicians across the world to take up researchers in forest entomology. 300 pp.
