What are currently promising and really relevant topics in entomology?
I have noticed that almost every researcher writes at the beginning of their work about the relevance and prospects of the research topic, but is this always true?
What is really relevant in modern entomology?

they always write like that - it's, like, a tradition of scientific writing...

What is promising? Here it is important to look from what point of view... For science, by and large, everything is important... First of all, in terms of attracting money and passing applications, this is another matter... Again, the scale is important - in Russia, in world science... Popular words: nano -, climate change (or not already?), using mol. methods, cryptic species...

promising is everything that the other can use to make a profit. if for science in general, then everything that is not researched or under-researched ))

actualno, for the most part, what is associated with agriculture (natural enemies of various pests) and the like is associated with parasites)

And which sections of entomology are currently the most developed? I wonder what is the situation with such unusual areas as forensic entomology, etc.?

And which sections of entomology are currently the most developed?
Well, for example, neurophysiology.

Well Rip, you give smile.gif
Well, for example, the" age " of the corpse depends on what types of flies it has chosen. In other words, they can be used to determine the time that has passed since death. I found it in a book once.

By forensic entomology, I mean the field of entomology that studies various types of necrophages and ecosystems of a corpse in order to establish a number of important information: the time of death, the true place of death (by the presence of insects from certain habitats on the corpse), because the corpse could have been moved, etc. an important component of entomological research. In Russia, I only saw Chaika's work "Forensic Entomology", which was published in an extremely small print run...

I thought it was called something like forensic smile.gifbut not forensic: O)

22.09.2009 14:18, Morfey

RippeR, however, it goes to print under the phrase "forensic entomology". In the English-speaking world as "Forensic Entomology". If you want, I can throw off one book in English.

or forensic medicine. there are few works in Russian... Look for articles by M. I. Marchenko. There are a couple of pages and links in the book "Diapause of flies and its regulation"by E. B. Vinogradova.

yes not, unfortunately time to read there is only a forum ))

Dmitry, thank you very much! smile.gif A very interesting review of forensic entomology.

22.09.2009 17:20, Victor Titov

Not on anything! If only the benefits were there.

Yes, the area is not for the faint of heart! but interesting and useful! Morfey, do you work in it? are you studying or planning to?

Link to Gennard_D_Forensic Entomology An Introduction_2007 - did you give this?

There was also a book like this here:
