Animal Protection Systematics Study - Symbol

This web site is designed to provide taxonomic and related biological and ecological information about the insects, mites and ticks that affect human and animal health in Canada and North America. These pages represent the products of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada scientists and collaborators. Products will include illustrated keys to relevant taxa, bibliographies, databases, fact sheets, and other synthesized information necessary to recognize both pest and beneficial species and to control the pests using beneficial organisms.
