  5. Insect Identification • The following pictures are intended to assist in the identification of arthropods found in your traps. • The photos are species that are likely to be found. Remember, there are many varying species in each order, and there are different stages that each species may be found in.

  6. Insect Identification • These arthropod pictures are grouped by classes, and then by their orders. • Order names on the picture slides are followed by the family names and/or common names.
