Introduction

Entomology, the science of the study of insects, is a major branch of Agricultural

Science. Insects are the largest and most diverse group of animals, which affect man in

many ways including damage to economic plants, fruits, seeds, stored products, furniture

and fixture and human and animal health. Many insects however are useful as they

pollinate economic plants, work as scavengers produce important products like, honey,

pollen, royal jelly, propolis and silk etc. Additionally, many groups of insects are

predatory and parasitic in nature and help in regulating population of injurious insects.

The Department of Entomology deals with both the aspects of insects i.e destructive and

useful.

Entomology is one of the major disciplines of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

Agricultural University, Peshawar and an important component of the Faculty of Crop

Protection Sciences. Department of Entomology was established in 1962. Since its

establishment, the department has been involved in basic and applied research in

different areas of Entomology in various regions of the province. The major areas of

research are insect taxonomy, pollination biology, biological control, Ecology, and

integrated pest management. We offer diverse courses in various disciplines of

Entomology at Bachelor, Master and Ph. D level.

The department has established an Insect Museum, where 10,000 insect and mite

specimens have been housed. Record of all the collected and identified species is

maintained. Some of the identified species are new to the province, some to the country

and some new to science.

We maintain a five acre farm at University level. The farm is used for students’ research

and different field experiments by faculty members working on research projects.

Seven faculty members are serving the department. These include one abroad. Four

faculty members have secured Ph. D. (two from USA, one from Germany and one from

Pakistan). One faculty has secured Post-doctorate from China last year.

Since its inception, the department is producing highly skilled manpower in the field of

Agricultural Entomology. The department has produced 380 graduates, 220 masters and

two Ph. Ds. Faculty members and students have published 180 research articles in

national and international journals. Additionally, 27 internship reports, 98 special

problems and 86 review papers have been authored. Faculty members have written four

books also.

Research is an integral part of entomological science. The department has so far completed

10 research projects on different entomological problems. These projects were funded by

various national and international donors. Currently two research projects are run by the

department.

The department never compromises on quality. For quality research and teaching we have

equipped our labs with quality microscopes, cameras, growth chambers, controlled

temperature and humidity devises, insect collection and storage equipment, overhead

projectors and computers. These facilities are available to students whenever they want to

conduct their experiments.

In additions to teaching at university level we also conduct trainings to farming

community on beekeeping, sericulture, Integrated Pest Management, Stored grain pest

management and termite control. The department has conducted 35 trainings to farming

community and other organizations.

The department has developed collaborations with other organizations. In this regard we

have signed MOUs with Chinese research institutes, Pakistan Museum of Natural

History, Department of Agriculture, Northern areas Gilgit.

Teaching and research

FIELD OF INTEREST

My main field of interest is the exploration of insect fauna of NWFP (North-West Frontier Province) particularly butterflies (and other pollinators) and natural enemies, whose existence is at stake due to the injudicious use pesticides. Today the need for food, fiber, and wood has increased many folds due to population explosion. To accomplish these needs man has engaged himself in activities that have led to the destruction of natural habitats. The loss of habitat is a serious threat to all wild life including butterflies and insect natural enemies. In order to have a sound ecosystem, the importance of butterflies as natural indicators and insects as natural enemies needs to be emphasized. As a biologist I would like to strengthen my qualification and skills in the above-mentioned areas. This would not only quench my thirst for working for the nature but would also help my students in the long run.

RESEARCH EXPERIENCE

MSc Thesis and research on “Distribution and Taxonomy of Butterflies of Kohat District.”

Co-supervised a research student on “Host Preference of pulse beetle Callosobruchus maculates in different legumes.”

Supervised a research student on “Efficacy of Synthetic Insect Growth Regulator Methoprene and Oils of Neem and Turmeric against Rhyzopertha dominica Fab. (Bostrichidae:Coleoptera).
