Illinois Dept. of Public Health
IDPH entomologists accept specimens (insects, spiders, ticks, etc.) for identification from Illinois residents.

1 Submit specimens in leak-proof, crush-resistant containers. If possible, do not tape or glue specimens.
2 Certain specimens (e.g., ticks, insect larvae) should be in 70% ethanol or isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol.
3 Mail specimens in crush-proof containers (plastic vials, med/specimen bottles, boxes, etc.) sealed inside plastic bags.
4 Specimens will be identified, but not tested for the presence of pathogens or disease.
5 Most specimens are identified and a written report mailed the same day they are received.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Pictorial Keys to Arthropods (and other animals) of Public Health Significance
Although this series of pictorial keys is focused on animals that affect human health, the keys are quite general and would seem to be useful to Bug Guide contributors. There is a general key to arthropod orders and then a series of separate keys for many of the individual groups. Comments welcome.
