Terra insecta

el mundo secreto de los insectos

Sverdrup-Thygeson, Anne

How relevant can a dead tree have hundreds of bugs? How do insects as diverse as beetles, flies, wasps, cockroaches, mosquitoes, dragonflies, bumblebees... contribute to the balance of nature? Why is life on the planet tied to these tiny creatures? Focusing on the contributions of insects, Terra insecta makes visible the existence of countless bugs that live on a millimeter scale and reveals that not only are they important sources of food for many animals, but their actions and behaviors generate a sophisticated domino effect that makes it possible from the pollination of plants to the reduction of manure, through biological control and biodiversity. A book about the amazing life of insects and the different functions they play in nature.
