This web site is a focus for the study and appreciation of Arizona Natural History. Topics include: Plants, Animals, Fungi, Geology, Insects. Anyone with an interest in sharing their accumulated knowledge or appreciation of Arizona's natural scene is welcome to make a contribution. Sonoran Desert Naturalist An extensive guide of over 1000 web pages covering the study of the nature in the Sonoran Desert. Many, many photos, watercolors, and descriptions of birds, insects, arachnids, plants, and habitats of the Sonoran Desert. Where to hike and what Natural History to see. Venomous insects in the Sonoran Desert include many bees and wasps. Surprisingly some ants sting worse than many bees! These are our all-important pollinators, so we must protect them anyway. Coleopterist's aren't sure who said it but it rings true: If you want to know the Creator study his/hers favorite subject: Beetles. There are way more kinds of beetles than any other order of animals in the Sonoran Desert. Riparian Plants inhabit the watered bottoms of canyons that slice into the mountains. With very wet habitats in close proximity to rocky and often densely shaded habitats the range of species is great. Guide with color photos and line drawings to almost 400 species of Sonoran Desert Plants. A few are still missing from the guide. If you can, please submit a good photo of a missing species with data to mjplagens@arizonensis.org. Camelback Mountain, Phoenix This bold red mountain rises above the teaming city. It entices both experienced and inexperienced to climb and explore. High Country Insects: In the mountains above the desert virtually an entirely different set of spiders, butterflies, beetles, flies and bugs exists. Here find a sampling of summertime arthropods in the high country. Ponderosa Woodland Biota Cool mountain forests are just an hour or two drive from the hot deserts. A completely different set of plants and animals live among the conifers. Sycamore Woodlands are among the most glorious of natural landscapes in the desert southwest. Dozens and dozens of places are called "Sycamore Creek" or "Sycamore Canyon". Exploring these places always surprise and amaze an observant naturalist.
