Many scientists have reported an extensive amount of information on the biology, life history, and damage potential of stink bugs. However, this information is scattered among numerous journals, periodicals, and other publications. Stink Bugs of Economic Importance in America North of Mexico brings together applied and nonapplied literature on the biology, life history, and damage potential of stink bugs in one complete and concise format. Written by two top-notch researchers, the book includes section by section discussions of various economic stink bug species, damage to individual crops and separate tables of host plants organized by common name, scientific name, and family name. With numerous unique line drawings and over 700 references to stink bug publications, it includes keys for identification of stink bug species and strategies for the control of destructive species.
"Stink Bugs of Economic Importance in America North of Mexico was written for those interested in stink bug management including extension professionals, crop consultants, and producers who deal with them as pests on a regular basis."

"In summary, this book is a valuable source of information for both researchers and educators who are interested in pestiferous pentatomids….It also should be valuable to those crop consultants who are dealing with stink bugs on a regular basis. … for those interested in owning an information source that captures current knowledge of stink bug pests in major crops, its price is a bargain."
