Best Answer

A dichotomous key is arranged in steps with two descriptive statements at each step. It is a detailed list of identifying characteristics that include scientific names.

Whilst, a field guide is a book designed to help the reader identify wildlife (plants or animals) or other objects of natural occurrence. Hope this helps! :)
