Not entymology info. Seriously, it’s just because you’re getting into a topic that isn’t popular. This is and has been the case for these kinds of topics. The internet is and has been only good for certain kinds of information, many fields are not represented online.

You can still do entomology… get into iNaturalist. I am not an entomologist but have learned a lot just from posting pictures of what I have found.

biologist here - I hear what you’re saying, but this information has really never been very available online bc people who go outside and catch bugs are not chronically online. The best botany guides are all locally published books

that being said … some resources:

bugGuide.net

iNaturalist forums - seriously, ask a question, ask for resources, experts such as nerdy self taught naturalists, college professors, and field workers will be chiming in

But yeah this isn’t an “anymore” issue for biology in particular. Good keys are just not available online. The production of keys is not a commercially viable product, so the people who write them don’t tend to make ebooks and such available so they can be sure they get paid via purchase of their books. Given the status of biology funding, I support this model in our current conditions. My local flora was funded by a local native plant society, written by (expert) retirees. I do believe they deserve compensation for their work, and it shouldn’t be though individual sales of books but at this point it is, so you can support them by checking out/requesting resources from your local library or buying the books (which you did). Welcome to biology.

How do you access the Pyongyang times? I can’t get a connection …
