WORLD CHALCIDOIDEA DATABASE ON CD-Rom This CDrom contains a complete World
Catalogue of all 26,000 names used in Chalcidoidea, more than 95,000 host
records, over 110,000 distribution records, more than 300 colour images of
adults and immature stages of most families, and an immense amount of
information on their use in biological control, biology, physiology, etc. [If
all the contained information were printed in the same style as Peck's 1963
Catalogue of Nearctic Chalcidoidea then it would be ca. 18,000 pages long.]
The catalogue is based on Dicky Yu's TAXA information system and uses a
Windows 95 environment. The system
provides an easy way to look up, search, manipulate and extract data and is
by far the best system currently available for these type of data. The catalogue is currently available only in Windows 95
version. It may also be accessed by
MAC users with Softwindows The CDrom can be obtained from the distributors: Springer-Verlag Postfach 31 13 40 D-10643 Berlin Germany Tel. +49 30 82787303 Fax +49 30 82787301 e-mail: orders@springer.de (Please give your complete mailing address. Local VAT is
