Below are links to websites where you can find pictures of the Science Olympiad species. Most pages have a search engine or are arranged by family. They are all good for different reasons, and you may find that some are better than others.
Of course, search engines such as Google and Yahoo have image searches that will usually give you many results. However, you can not be sure that they are the correct species, so make sure to double-check.
