A review of dipterocarps - Center for International Forestry Research

Pests and Diseases of Dipterocarpaceae 125
refer to the old taxonomic classification. Still many
insects have not been identified beyond genus. A
thorough revision of the insect taxonomy needs to
be conducted. A taxonomy training programme for
Asian research staff will help to reduce costs and
update laboratories’ data-bases and collections.
Acknowledgements
I offer my thanks to the European Union for funding a
project on dipterocarps, and the Forest Research Institute
Malaysia for providing the facilities to carry out this
project. Additional thanks to Mrs. Kong and her
colleagues for their help in my bibliographic work. I also

Université Lyon 1), Dr. K.S.S. Nair (Kerala Forest
Research Institute) and Dr. L. Curran (University of
Michigan) for their suggestions on improving the final
draft.
