Insects of the Pacific Northwest
By Peter Haggard, Judy Haggard

Les Insectes du Québec--Guide d' Identification
By Yves Dubuc
Éditions Broquet, 2005
In French. Described on http://www.lesinsectesduquebec.com/ as having over 2000 color photos of 1530 species of insects. (That site also has extensive resources on-line.)
Careful, there may be a popular and a "scientific" version of this work--I can't be quite sure of the ISBN. See for instance, the
amazon Canada
listing, which shows a different cover than the work above.
