"Recent Sawfly Research: Synthesis and Prospects" is a jumbo-sized volume with contributions in both English, German and French. A CD-ROM with additional material should be attached to the book - check with the seller if it's really there.
All articles in this work are very technical, as can be gleaned from their titles: "Development in Symphytan Phylogenetics in the 20th century: Towards a consensus", "Sawflies from Temperate Primary Forests and Forest Plantations of East Poland Collected by Insecticidal Knock-down Fogging" or "Sexual Communication and Host Plant Associations of Australian Pergid Sawflies".
Knock-down fogging? Is that even ethical?
Sawflies are less known to the general public than their more colourful hymenopteran cousins ants, bees and wasps. Perhaps that explains why no popularized work on Symphyta have been published, at least not to my knowledge.
Somehow, I don't think this mastodon work will appeal to the general bug-lover.
Now, concerning that knock-down fogging...
