About this book

Language: German

The diversity and dynamics of the bark beetles will increasingly influence the future of Germany's forests.

The symbiotic bark beetles are the evolutionarily and ecologically most important subfamily of the weevils. They play a central role in native forest ecosystems and are themselves an important food base for many animal groups. About 125 species live in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, mainly in deciduous and coniferous trees. Because climate change is forcing new forests in the future, it is becoming more and more important to have knowledge of bark beetles and their biology. This is where Professor Wolfgang Rohe comes in with his new book, which therefore not only belongs in the hands of all practitioners from relevant areas such as forestry, nature conservation and environmental politics, but also provides the necessary basic knowledge for teachers and students in the relevant subjects and prepares them for real-world practice.

Political leaders and municipal decision-makers should also consider the findings of this new standard work when making relevant decisions. Furthermore, anyone interested in entomology and natural history will also find valuable inspiration here.

Summary in German:
Die Vielfalt und Dynamik der Borkenkäfer wird die Zukunft unserer heimischen Wälder in verstärktem Maße beeinflussen.

Die symbiontisch lebenden Borkenkäfer sind die evolutionär und ökologisch wichtigste Unterfamilie der Rüsselkäfer. Sie nehmen in heimischen Waldökosystemen eine zentrale Rolle ein und sind selbst eine bedeutende Nahrungsbasis für viele Tiergruppen. In Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz leben ca. 125 Arten, überwiegend in Laub- und Nadelbäumen. Dadurch, dass der Klimawandel für die Zukunft neue Wälder erzwingt, wird es immer wichtiger, spezielle Artenkenntnisse zu Borkenkäfern und deren Biologie zu besitzen. Dieses notwendige Wissen vermittelt Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Rohe in dem vorliegenden Buch, welches daher nicht nur in die Hand aller Praktiker aus den betreffenden Bereichen wie Forst, Landschaftspflege und Naturschutz gehört, sondern Lehrenden und Lernenden der entsprechenden Fächer zu dem nötigen Grundwissen verhilft.

Auch politisch Verantwortliche und kommunale Entscheider sollen die Erkenntnisse dieses neuen Standardwerkes bei relevanten Entscheidungen berücksichtigen. Ferner werden alle entomologisch und naturkundlich Interessierten dort ebenfalls wertvolle Anregungen finden.
