INTRODUCTION Public health biologists are often responsible for teaching animal identi— fication to personnel (sanitarians, engineers, physicians, veterinarians, etc.) without special training in taxonomy. One of the most successful devices for such training has been the pictorial key. The first U.S. Public Health Service pictorial key was devised by Stanley B. Freeborn and Eugene J. Gerberg (1943) to guide personnel in the identification of anopheline mosquito larvae during our national malaria control program. After the Communicable Disease Center was founded (1946) additional keys were developed. At present the Center utilizes more than 75 such keys in its regular training program. These are the major items incorporated into this booklet. Apropos morphological diagrams are also included. Precise identification of disease vectors is essential to their efficient control. In using the following keys it should be remembered that only a few of them include all species in a group, and that determinations made using them are only tentative. The pictorial keys are typical of identification keys found in reference works and scientific papers except that they are arranged as diagrams and are illustrated. After making the first choice offered at the tOp of each page, follow the black lines or indicated numbers to secondary choices until the correct identification has been made. Note that, in some cases, the identification can be made in the first choice. Note: The differing formats and typography in this publication were deliberately selected to: (1) Provide a broad spectrum of taxonomic experience; (2) Avoid the stultifying effect of monotonous repetition. l. .2 ARTHROPODS OF PUBLIC HEALTH IMPORTANCE: KEY TO COMMON CLASSES AND ORDERS Harold George Scott and Chester J.
