Stoneflies (Plecoptera) of Alaska and Western Canada

Description:

Summary of the current knowledge about the diversity, systematics, distribution, and biogeography of the 153 species of stoneflies currently known from northwestern North America. New keys and illustrations are provided to all species of adults and to the lowest possible identifiable taxon of nymphs. This book should be a useful tool for research and biomonitoring efforts, and hopefully will stimulate further specific collections and biological studies of stoneflies in the region. This book is the first complete historical perspective and identification guide for Alaska, for stoneflies, or for any important aquatic insect order in the region. The entire database of new collection records assembled during a 26-year study is included
