I am currently trying to identify adult aquatic insects caught on sticky traps (stuck in Tanglefoot on overhead sheets). The samples are from traps located near small tributaries in the Salmon River Mountains of central Idaho. I am looking for a key to help me identify the insects to the family level. Because the bugs are stuck in goo, identification is quite difficult. I am looking for a regional and perferably visual key such as the Xerces key for the Pacific Northwest juvenile taxa. I'm not sure if this exists for adult, but it would be quite helpful. I have a copy of Merritt, Cummins, and Berg. But it would be nice to have a more regional key to narrow things down a bit. Another thing that might be helpful would be photos of adult taxa to compare to my samples.
Thanks for your help, Hannah Harris
