(eds) © 1998 Balkema, Rotterdam, ISBN 905410 930 0 Preface One of the major themes of the 20th International Congress of Entomology which was held in Florence, Italy, from 25-31 August 1996 was Ecology and Population Dynamics, with six sessions on this topic. During the Congress it was agreed that a selection of the papers would be published, and we are pleased to present them in this book. The papers are grouped into three categories: Single Species dynamics, Population interactions, and Community ecology. Within these categories a great variety of topics are discussed, and we believe that taken as a whole these proceedings provide a valuable guide to the latest research in these areas, with some emphasis on quantitative methods. As such these papers will be of interest to mathematicians and statisticians working in population modelling and esti- mation as well as population ecologists in general and entomologists. To ensure the quality of the papers, authors were asked to act as referees for each other. We thank them for the efforts made and believe that it has helped to improve the final product. We also thank the individual authors who persevered with us when we requested formatting changes so as to ensure consistency as far as possible. Finally, special thanks are due to Dr Colleen Jamieson of Dunedin who agreed at short notice to review one of the papers, although she is not herself an author, and to Irene Goodwin who made a number of final format changes to the manuscript before it was sent to the publisher.
