Abstract:
        The 19 Mecoptera species occurring in Ontario are reviewed with the provision of extensively illustrated keys in three alternative formats (Lucid ID, HTML non-hierarchical keys, and dichotomous keys). Only male specimens of Panorpa are keyed. The keys cover all eastern Canadian Mecoptera and all Canadian Mecoptera other than Boreidae (all known Canadian Mecoptera other than some western Boreidae occur in Ontario). Distributional data are given for Ontario only.
