Notes | Stoneflies are aquatic insects living in cool, well-oxygenated streams. They are sensitive to the presence of pollutants, and their presence is a valuable indicator of good water quality. They are important food sources for fish, particularly trout. This classic guide includes a dichotomous key and numerous illustrations to help identify species. Note: species names may have changed since this publication was written. |
