cites diverse references and presents organized arguments for the evolutionary behavioral changes that have occurred in the order Hymenoptera since its origin in the late Carboniferous or early Permian to the present day. The arguments, though sometimes teleological for the sake of clarity, are largely based on field investigations and laboratory studies of insect behavior as well as morphologi...

Part II deals with Basic Metabolism; here the familiar and general information on carbon cycles, respiratory pathways and protein and fat synthesis is supplemented by such plant-oriented chapters as "Biogenesis of the cell wall," "Biological reduction of sulfate and nitrate," and "Mineral metabolism." Part III, entitled Some Plant Metabolism, includes chapters on organic acids (Ranson), alkaloi...

Electron-hole excitations and optical spectra from first principles

We present a recently developed approach to calculate electron-hole excitations and the optical spectra of condensed matter from first principles. The key concept is to describe the excitations of the electronic system by the corresponding oneand two-particle Green’s function. The method combines three computational techniques. First, the electronic ground state is treated within density-functi...
