Classic Bed Bug Book Now Available in Paperback
Lanham, MD; April 2, 2007 - "Monograph of Cimicidae," the definitive
resource on bed bugs, has been reprinted by the Entomological Society of
America (ESA). As bed bug problems have grown in the United States and
abroad, so has interest in this hard-to-find book, which sells for hundreds
of dollars in online auctions. The newly published paperback version is now
available to ESA members for $59.00 and to non-members for $74.00, including
shipping within the continental U.S.
First published in 1966, this classic text by Robert L. Usinger covers the
feeding habits, ecology, disease transmission, control, morphology, anatomy,
physiology, embryology, cytology, systematics, and taxonomy of the insect
family Cimicidae, which includes human bed bugs. The 585-page book is
divided into 14 chapters, and it features photographs and illustrations of
both adult and immature Cimicids, treating 74 species arranged in 22 genera
and 6 subfamilies. "Monograph of Cimicidae" (ISBN 0-9776209-2-1) is a
valuable resource for entomologists, epidemiologists, ecologists and
pest-control professionals.
