Use this set of 18 full color flash cards alone or as an addition to any macroinvertebrate activity. (Included in the Leaf Pack Experiments Stream Ecology Kit). The front of each card features a full-color photograph of a common macroinvertebrate in its natural environment. A list of dichotomous characteristics, a measuring scale, and detailed drawings on the back of each card aid in the identification process.

Helpful notes prevent confusion between macroinvertebrates with a similar appearance. A hole can be punched in the wide border of the laminated cards so they can be organized on a ring for field or classroom use.

 

A precision, NON-MERCURY thermometer, furnished in a protective plastic jacket with a window opening. Engraved graduations on white tubing increase the readability over the full range of -5° to 45°C in 0.5° increments.
