My Insects

This fall, I collected insects for my entomology course. The collection contains over 100 individuals from about 15 orders and 65 families.


I will introduce you to some of them, up close and personal (with photos from my new camera).


Giant water bug, in the family Belastomatidae.

A taphritid fly with colorful wings.

Dragonfly from the family Aeshnidae.


Green lacewing, Chrysopidae.
