dc.description.abstract	The purpose of this study was to determine insect species diversity and abundance in interdunal wetlands (swales) located off the coast of Lake Michigan in Wilderness State Park, Sturgeon Bay, Michigan. The first five swales found consecutively from the lake had their water, soil and insect populations tested for composition. We are in search of support for a relationship between insect populations and interdunal swale age. While it was hypothesized that the highest diversity would be found at the intermediate successional stages, we were not surprised to discover it was the second beach pool from the lake that provided the highest richness of insects.	en_US
