Fruit Flies (Tephritidae): Phylogeny and Evolution of Behavior
Editorial Reviews
Review
"…The editors had high expectations from the start, and the resulting book exceeded those expectations … Whew - quite a book, unlike anything else in the Diptera literature! … a comparable book does not exist … Students of the family will be mulling over and digesting these chapters for decades to come. The framework laid here by the phylogenetic analyses will likely lead to rapid progress in clarifying evolutionary relationships … Anyone who has ever collected and marveled at these beautiful insects, or watched some display of their behavior and wondered what motivated it, will find cause for reflection by reading this book, and hopefully be inspired to return to the scene to more fully explore and attempt to related it to what he has read here." -Gary J. Steck, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Gainesville in Proceedings of the Entomological Society of Washington
