The organophosphorus pesticides are used primarily as insecticides and acaricides. Some of the OPPs of commercial importance are listed in Table 18 and in Table 2b at the end of this chapter. More detailed information (LD50s, etc.) may be obtained from references listed in the introduction, e.g., the Pesticide Index (ref. lb) and the Agrochemicals Handbook (ref. 15). The annual Pesticide Use Report(s) of the State of California list current agricultural and environmental usage of all classes of pesticides both as to commodities treated and the names and quantities of pesticides applied (ref. 165).

The chemistry of different classes of pesticides has been reviewed by Benson (1969, 1971), Benson and Jones (1967), and Mel nikov (1971). The chemieal structures, trade and common names, and chemical, physical, analytical, toxicity, and usage data are contained in the Pesticide Dictionary (1992) and the Agrochemicals Handbook (1991).

The handbook is composed of two parts. Part One provides the reader with valuable information on all aspects of pesticides. This section helps the reader recognize that pesticides and certain agrochemicals are essential tools in the control of most pests and that the safe use of these chemicals is an essential element in this control.
