This second volume of a two-volume set describes special techniques in chemical ecology, both field and laboratory including: wind tunnels, GC-EAD techniques and other electrophysiological techniques, trapping studies, olfactometers and feeding bioassays. The second section in this volume is taxonomically organized, discussing intraspecific (pheromones) and interspecific (kairomones) communication as applied to plant-plant, insect-plant, insect-animal, and animal-animal interactions.
