Pictured Key Nature Series:
How to Know the Aquatic Insects, Dennis M. Lehmkuhl
This book is regarded as a practical tool and is
meant to be a working companion in the field and in the laboratory.
It has two aims. One is to provide a quick and accurate means
of identifying families and distinctive genera. The family is
the standard level for many teaching and survey purposes. It
is hoped that from this point of view the book is a self-contained
and independent unit. Second, it can be used as an
introduction to the specialized literature. It covers all
families (and occasionally genera and species) of aquatic insects
found in North America north of Mexico. This book was prepared
in particular for ecologists, students, naturalists, and
entomologists. The keys use over 600 drawings arranged in
nearly 300 figures. Spiral bound; 168 pages, 7 1/2 x
9 1/4, b&w drawings.
