Introduction to California Beetles is really an introduction to IPM
By rebugging
An an entomologist I was really a little disappointed in this book because it has very few pictures of beetles and seemed unbalanced for the target audience. I you want an introduction to the life history and ecology of some of the most important beetles, this is the book for you -- but be prepared to struggle through some hard vocabulary. (For example, microfossils, radiocarbon dating (undefined), Pleistocene matrix, and faunal are found on page 100). If you want to identify beetles, purchase a field guide.

As the title points out, this is an introduction (and not a field guide or key).
Still a surperb book on natural history and once you finish this one, you will definitely be ready to go out and maybe guess what beetle you are looking at. A more proper key or field guide is highly suggested.
