Ninety-Nine More Maggots, Mites, and Munchers Paperback - 1993

by May R. Berenbaum

Add to wish list

The clever author of the acclaimed Ninety-Nine Gnats, Nits, and Nibblers offers a companion volume that runs the gamut from the regrettably familiar, including ticks, cockroaches, and mosquitoes, to bizarre and obscure creatures such as sheep keds, mantispids, and reindeer throat bobs.

From the publisher

What lives in a reindeer's nose? Glad you asked. In this sequel to Ninety-nine Gnats, Nits, and Nibblers, National Medal of Science winner May Berenbaum offers another classic compendium of creepy-crawly cameos. Read up on our myriad arthropodan indignities and allies as Berenbaum reveals:
Why the rove beetle gives mind-altering drugs to ants
How the snail-killing fly enjoys its escargot
Why Piophila casei doesn't care when you eat its larvae
What strange fate awaits a honey ant worker engorged with nectar

As lively as a fly in the buttermilk, Ninety-nine More Maggots, Mites, and Munchers is a who's who and what's THAT? guide to Lilliputian life-forms both familiar and obscure.
