| Accurate species
identification is best accomplished with the help of an expert - someone who has spent
weeks, months, and years in the field. Try to schedule a workshop before you get started NatureMapping.
Amateurs can readily access good sources of
information at the Digital Atlas of Idaho 2000 web site (http://imnh.isu.edu/digitalatlas).
The Atlas is also available on CD-ROM. Go to the Atlas Web Site and visit the Biology Section to
access detailed information about Idaho's animals.
You can also try using one of many
field guides.
Species codes are found on this web site by using the links at left.
If you do not
have access to the species coding system, we will also accept the species common name and
scientific name. However, species codes are helpful! |
