This book offers an introduction to 170 species that have been found in Ohio, including a guide to their identification, details about their fascinating behavior and complex life histories, and an overview of their context as part of our natural world. Striking photographs of living insects illustrate the male and female of each species, as well as the different color forms of many variable odonates. Maps of recent records based on extensive field surveys show where each species may be found in Ohio and how their distributions have changed over time.
