The Common Insects of North America
By Lester A. Swan, Charles S. Papp
Harper & Row, 1972
Cite: 2776
Good reference with many excellent illustrations (1400 scratchboard drawings, 8 color plates of artwork). Out-of-print, but sometimes can be found used. Probably superseded by Papp's Comprehensive Guide to North American Insects.
