昆虫学是生态学专业的一门重要专业课程。其开设的目的是该专业的学生

了解昆虫学的基础知识，掌握主要农作物的害虫的发生规律和防治措施，为今后的防治实践

奠定良好的理论和实践基础。

昆虫学是一门综合性学科，它必须讲授昆虫外部形态、昆虫生理学、昆虫生物学、昆虫

分类、昆虫生态学及害虫预测预报、害虫综合防治原理及方法等基础知识，为讲授农作物害

虫奠定基础。

昆虫学中各论部分实践性、地区性、时间性均很强，因此以长江中下游地区和江苏省的

主要害虫为主，具体讲授水稻、小麦、棉花、蔬菜、林果等作物发生的主要害虫及地下害虫，

使同学们能够融会贯通、举一反三。

昆虫学理论课以课堂讲授为主，结合实验教学，以加深理解课程的内容。课堂讲授主次

分明，重点突出。多讲授一些最新动态，以教师的实践经验提高学生兴趣；进行课堂提问，

督促学生复习；在教学中根据不同专业特点，可适当删除和补充相关作物害虫讲述，并向不

同专业学生提供相关的参考书和专业杂志目录，并督促学生阅读，以扩大学生知识面，提高

学生分析问题和解决问题的综合能力。
