Identification Resources-Ongoing
(The current plan is that this is going to be an ever-evolving post where I dump new identification resources.
Maybe I'll break up posts by Kingdom--let's see how unwieldy this gets!)
Identification resources:
Arthropods:
Butterfly eggs

Moth eggs

Hemiptera eggs

Things mistaken for insect eggs:

ScaleNet-ID insect scales
https://scalenet.info/
Particularly useful is the "Ecological Associates" tab at the top where you can look up lists of scale species by host plants https://scalenet.info/associates/
Currently I look up host plant, then plug the scale genus into iNat for photos. Many species do not have photos on iNaturalist or even when searching the internet.
Moths and butterflies in North America:

Miller, Jeffrey C.; Hammond, Paul C. 2003. Lepidoptera of the Pacific Northwest: caterpillars and adults. FHTET-2003-03. Morgantown, VW: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Forest Health Technology Enterprise Team. 324 p. (Online only)

Can look up photos by state. Useful to have a genus to start with.
