Resources on the Internet (http://www.library.wisc.edu/libraries/Steenbock/subjectguide/entomology.htm)
- Internet Resource Guide for Zoology (http://www.biosis.org/free_resources/resource_guide.html)
- Index to Organism Names (http://www.biosis.org.uk/ion/search.htm)
Gives "basic nomenclatural and hierarchy information, plus ZR volume occurrence counts (reflecting use in the literature)
for animal names; and links to other organizations' data for non-animal names. It can be used to identify the taxonomic group
to which a named organism belongs and to link to further information from ZR or other collaborating organizations."
- Nomenclatural Glossary for Zoology (http://www.biosis.org/free_resources/nomglos.html)
"Covers terminology commonly encountered within publications dealing with the systematics and nomenclature of animals."
- Insecta. BiologyBrowser (http://www.biologybrowser.org/bb/Organism/Invertebrata/Arthropoda/Insecta/index.shtml)
This resource links to Web sites of "educational, scientific and academic interest" in entomology. Subject coverage includes
natural biology, systematics and taxonomy, pest management and biocontrol, and more. Other information is included, such as lists of entomological societies and image archives.
- Insecta. Tree of Life (http://tolweb.org/tree?group=Insecta&contgroup=Hexapoda)
The Tree of Life Web Project is intended to be used by "those interested in locating information about a particular group of organisms,
by biologists seeking identification keys, figures, phylogenetic trees, and other systematic information for a group of organisms, and by educators teaching about organismal diversity." Originally
designed for biologists, the project is now also including information of interest to non-biologists, such as middle and high school students.
The site includes links to other entomology Web sites.
