- Morphology and systematics;
- Biochemistry, biotechnology, genetics, and genomics;
- Behavior, biology, and physiology;
- Biodiversity, climate change, conservation, ecology, and evolution;
- Pest management, pesticide resistance, and toxicology;

- Social insects, medical and veterinary entomology.
We look forward to your novel work.
