Thanks
I couldnt find it in my small guide.

 
best sources
if NY is the area where you live and observe your bugs, then keep(1) on you desk at all times, and carry(2) along -- that would be my best advice :-]

99% in NYC area.
I was going to ask where I can learn more. In one shot you answered the question in my mind.
Just ordered the books on Amazon. That will keep me busy for a while!!!
Tanks again.
