Terrestrial Riparian Arthropod Investigations In The Big Beaver Creek Area, 1995-1996, Part 1

There is also much left to be learned from the samples collected during 1995 and 1996 in the study area. Specimens from several other groups of arthropods still require identification. Among these groups, the Diptera are the most numerous making up greater than 20% of all individuals collected.

This report represents one of a series of five technical reports on our efforts to document arthropod occurrence,
abundance, and habitat associations in the Big Beaver Creek Research Natural Area of North Cascades National
Park Complex (NOCA), located in northwestern Washington. The first four reports document occurrence, life
history information, and information concerning taxonomy of species from four major arthropod groups including
the Heteroptera (Hemiptera), Coleoptera, Arachnida (Araneae), and Hymenoptera (Formicidae).
