NAU Forest Entomology Collection (NAUF-NAUF5F)
The collection contains forest insects collected primarily in Coconino and Kaibab National Forests. Many bark beetle and wood borer specimens, and ground beetles (mostly Carabidae and Tenembrionidae) are in the collection. The collection also houses hundreds of pine sawfly species many of which are voucher specimens for publications and books. Ant collections from Guana Africa are also present in the collection.
