My son got bit by a bug that I can not locate any where. Do you know of a site to look at all bugs in Colorado?

Great pictures! You helped us correctly identify a Lygus kalmii that we had found. Thank you!

Tom,

These are great pictures. You even got a jumping bristletail!

Keep posting more CO bugs. I also am trying to get as many as I can. (I am posting mine with BugWood/IPM Images).
