This somewhat taxonomically outdated yet very valuable source (originally published as Bousquet, Y. (Ed.) 1991. Checklist of beetles of Canada and Alaska. Research Branch, Agriculutre Canada. Publication 1861/E., Ottawa. 430 pp.) had been extensively cited on BG for years; I'm adding this entry to facilitate/standardize citation using the consistent [cite:_377219] format.
Also available as Excel worksheet

kerbtier.de - The overview of the beetle fauna of Germany, by Christoph Benisch

This impeccably designed, user-friendliest online photo guide is run by a formidable beetle enthusiast who only includes photos of specimens captured by himself. This extremely helpful source shows species thumbnails (backed by excellent high-res pix) of each family as a single plate, which offers the user a perfect idea of what the members of the group look like. Highly recommended to anyone remotely interested in beetles. Browse it often, folks!
