Colorado Aquatic Insects

Obviously this is not a book for everyone. I do think it would be useful to anyone from the Rocky Mountains and not just Colorado. For the price it is the best book to have with you on a field trip and most of the other people I know (a narrow group to be sure) carry it with them along with their collecting equipment. I volunteer as a monitor for wildland restoration projects and we are interested to see what positive impact we are having on stream health. One of the flags of success is a healthly aquatic insects community. It is a good starter book before one gets really serious and pops for a $100+ book on benthic organisms.

Mountain stream insects of Colorado

This is a nice little book. It's not exhaustive and it is limited to mountain stream insects of Colorado (just like the title says!). However, there is an excellent introduction with some guiding principles of ecology and the illustrations throughout the book are excellent. I find it a useful compliment to other, more technical books - especially for teaching newcomers in the lab about insect anatomy. It's worth every cent, but it won't answer all of your questions.
