This beautifully illustrated book shows the incredible variety of courtship behaviors and celebrates the wonderful natural history of a wide range of insects. By studying model species - such as the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster - researchers have discovered how genes control and influence courtship behavior, via proteins, biochemical pathways and neural circuits. This book integrates these diverse fields into a framework constructed around courtship and mate-finding, bringing together studies from the laboratory and the field.
