内容説明・目次
内容説明
This volume provides a summary of the natural history of the ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae and over 2400 taxa) from North America north of Mexico. Under each taxon, the ecology, biology, dispersal power, collecting techniques and selected references are given. The section on ecology comprises the following: altitudinal distribution, habitat, diel activity and gregariousness. The section dealing with biology gives details on seasonality, mating, gravid females or oviposition, tenerals, over-wintering, feeding, predation, parasitism and defence-mechanism. The section on dispersal power, or the capability of dispersal, has been assessed when possible using three main criteria: wing condition, flight data (including light-trapping observations) and other locomotory habits. The section on collecting techniques provides the best means of capture. The section references list the most relevant papers, with appropriate key words, and an exhaustive bibliography dealing with the natural history of North American Carabidae is also provided.
This work follows the "Catalogue of Bousquet and Larochelle" (1993), "Catalogue of the Geadephaga (Coleoptera: Trachypachydae, Rhysodidae, Carabidae including Cicindelini of America north of Mexico) which provided nomenclatural and distributional information on North American ground beetles
