CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
As well as a bound collection of maps, an atlas can be defined as a book of photographs or tables covering any subject. High quality insect photographs in Atlas of Stored-Product Insects and Mites will be useful in making an initial insect identification so that an appropriate taxonomic key can be selected to confirm the identification of an insect species. The book has 7 chapters. Chapter 2 has insect photographs and summary information for each of the 235 insect species that add to the photographs given in Nawrot and Klejdysz (2009) book and the information in Hagstrum and Subramanyam (2009a). The insect species photographed were 235 out of 1663 species that were ranked highest as stored-product insect pests. Chapters 3, 4 and 5 expand upon the summaries in Chapter 2. Chapter 6 provides summary information for 280 species of mites (Acari) reported to be associated with stored products similar to the summary information provided for insects. Chapter 7 discusses tools and information that need to be considered when developing a pest management program for stored-product insect pests and shows where additional information can be found. For a good example of a monitoring-based pest management program developed for stored wheat insect pests see Hagstrum et al. (2010). Popular literature which is infrequently cited in the scientific literature can be more user friendly and provide an industry perspective of pest problems and solutions. For an overview of useful popular literature on stored-product insect pests and their management see Hagstrum and Subramanyam (2009b).
The Atlas will be useful to students, extension personnel, consultants, food industry sanitarians and managers, legislators, regulators, plant quarantine inspectors, stored-product entomologists, urban entomologists, seed technologists and pest management professionals, and will be an essential desk reference for anyone working with stored-product insects or mites. Atlas of Stored-Product Insects and Mites includes more stored-product insect and mite common names, synonyms for stored-product insects and mites scientific names, geographic distribution records and literature citations for life histories studies than other books. The commodities infested by insect species are classified into 28 categories and research on the suitability of commodities as insect food is summarized. Literature references are provided for each record of a commodity infested by an insect species. These literature references may help the readers decide whether a commodity is likely to be a suitable host for a pest species. Atlas of Stored-Product Insects and Mites shows the diversity and geographic distribution of stored-product insect and mite species, and will make solving stored-product pest problems easier by making essential information more readily available.

STORED-PRODUCT INSECTS
A full listing of the abbreviations used in Table 2.2 is given in Table 2.1. Photographs of the adults of 235 species stored-product insects and information on these species are included in Table 2.2. For a few of these species, pictures of male and female are included to show the sexual dimorphism. Wingspan is given for most Lepidoptera and body length is given for the other species. Much of the text in Table 2.2 is from Hagstrum and Subramanyam (2009) with some summarization and updating. In addition to English common names, French (F), German (G), Russian (R) and Spanish (S) common names are provided for many species. Common names are reported for 26.8% of the the 235 species of insects.
