Very good pictures, but vague on some of the information and identification. Usually I like to i.d. the critter...then come here or look up information on it separately...seems that I get a better grip on the information that way. I am bookmarking this site nonetheless...a great quick reference. Thanks KoddieDoo.

It's a neat site. However, there's a number of pictures that I know well and I don't see any crediting of the photographer. I can guarantee that John Rice's foram picture was taken without permission. There are other pictures that are quite recognizable as well. The site developer should have credited them for their picture IMO (unless they didn't get permission to use the pic's in the first place).
