Parasitoids - species which lay their eggs on or in the bodies of other species, the larvae feeding on and usually killing the host - are important, both because of their use in controlling economic pest species, and also because of their recent use in testing many aspects of evolutionary theory. This book synthesizes work from both schools of parasitoid biology. Chapters cover general parasitoid natural history and taxonomy, reproductive strategy, host searching and selection, and community ecology.
