  • "Interest in insect communication and the volume of literature on the subject has mushroomed in the past decade as physical and chemical methods of studying the organs that emit and receive signals, and the signals themselves, have imrproved, encouraged by the prospect of manipulating insect behaviour for pest control. It is therefore fitting that the commemorative celebrations of the society's foundation 150 years ago and its receipt of a Royal Charter in 1885 should include a symposium on this subject which spans so many aspects of insect life and entomological science. However, as information has accumulated and become more specialised, so has it become more fragmented."
