Kings River Aquatic Insects

Note: Pictures on this page load very slowly as they are large files to give picture quality (rec. DSL or Cable ISP)

This is an effort to enhance your knowledge of the various insects found in the Kings River system. I will attempt to provide the type of insect information. The collecting area will be identified. Your task is to research and identify the insects. Feedback will be posted on the web site. Photos by Dave Burris
