Natural History of Louisiana:  A Selected Bibliography 
Compiled by Bob Thomas, Loyola University New Orleans
The list of references on natural history focus on the Louisiana region, thus it includes identification guides from nearby states.  Except for vertebrates, identification of natural objects and species often requires the use of numerous publications since the more specious groups are not all figured or keyed in single volumes.  These books are excellent, and should give the naturalist correct answers or clues to the identities of specimens, thus allowing well-grounded, educated opinions or an entre to the effective use of references found on the internet.
