| Details of Insect Taxonomic Groups             Examples of beneficial species occur in almost every insect
  order, and considerable information on morphology and habits has been
  assembled.  Therefore, the principal
  groups of insect parasitoids and predators provide details that refer to the
  entire class Insecta.  These details
  are available at <taxnames.htm>.   |
