Entomological Research： Progress and Prospects

Because of their economic importance, ancient evolutionary history, and extensive diversity, insects are of great interest to humans. As a result of their economic importance and scientific values, entomology, a branch of science that deals with insects in various aspects, has been advancing rapidly, especially in the past two decades. Coincidentally during the same period, numerous young Chinese scientists have been abroad to pursue advanced studies as graduates or to conduct research as scholars in various entomological fields. Most of them have made great achievements in their areas due to their strong commitment and diligent work. This can be evidenced by a huge number of their publications in highly ranked scientific journals. As a result of their outstanding contributions, many of them have been promoted to faculty positions in universities, government agencies, and other institutions around the world. Armed with rich research experience, modern technologies, and comprehensive expertise, these overseas entomologists want to make contributions to accelerate entomological research in China. The book Entomological Research： Progress and Prospects is one of their strides in this direction.
