An Introduction to the Aquatic Insects of North America serves as a standard guide on the immature and adult stages of aquatic and semiaquatic insects of North America. It offers information on the distribution, tolerance values, trophic relationships, and functional adaptations of aquatic insects that allows an additional tool for categorising them.This text is intended to serve as a standard reference on the taxonomy, biology and ecology of aquatic insects with updated keys to separate life stages of all major taxonomic groupings. To this aim, the authors have provided additional excellent color photographs of most all families of immature aquatic insects to assist the student and professional with correct identifications.New to the 5th edition:Over 7000 referencesA chapter on A Photographic Overview of Aquatic Insects of North AmericaA revision and expansion of keys, as well as new figures added to the taxonomic chaptersAdded figures to the General Classification and Key to OrderschapterAll chapters have been updated with significant changes to chapters on Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, Trichoptera, Coleoptera, Diptera and TipuloideaSingle chapters covering each Order of all stages of aquatic insects
