[IBC] German-speaking list people, I need your help
Dear German-speaking list people,
as you maybe know the IBC website is currently under translation, and I'm working on Jim Lewis' articles. He recommends insect books which are great for North America, but don't help us much over here in Europe. The bugs just aren't the same. Do you have any books on insect identification you find helpful and would like to recommend? Please write me (privately), preferrably with a short description of the book, and why you find it helpful. Thanks a lot for your assistance Ulrike Bauer Liebe deutschsprachige Mitglieder, wie Ihr vielleicht wisst, wird die IBC-Website gerade übersetzt, und ich bearbeite im Moment die Artikel von Jim Lewis. Er empfiehlt Bücher über Insekten, die für Nordamerika sicher sehr gut sind, aber uns hier in Europa nicht viel nützen. Die Insektenwelt ist zu verschieden. Habt Ihr Bücher, mit deren Hilfe man Nützlinge und Schädlinge identifizieren kann, die Ihr empfehlen könnt? Bitte schreibt mir (privat), am besten mit einer kurzen Beschreibung des Buches, und warum Ihr es hilfreich findet. Vielen Dank für Eure Hilfe Ulrike Bauer ************************************************** ****************************** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Marc Zimmerman++++ ************************************************** ****************************** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?

Although not a German-speaker, I have one redeeming quality: I know an entomologist. I sent him your question and he replied:
"Well, probably the nicest book I have seen, which mainly covers pests of ornamentals, is A Color Atlas of Pests of Ornamental Trees, Shrubs and Flowers, by David Alford. What it lacks in breadth it more than compensates in the stunningly good photos. Really first-class. This is a Brit. book, but lots of other European spp. I don't know offhand if there is a good general entomology text like our favorite here (Borror) auf Deutsch oder Englisch (vielleicht), but for learning the trade the US book is a very good one no matter where you live."
