The Colorado Plateau Museum of Arthropod Biodiversity






instructional videos
The Colorado Plateau Museum of Arthropod Biodiversity (CPMAB) is one of the museums operated by the Department of Biological Sciences at Northern Arizona University. The museum houses an arthropod collection of over 250,000 specimens, primarily from the western United States and Mexico. Our geographic areas of focus are the Colorado Plateau and adjacent regions. The major goal of the museum is to make the collection more relevant to ecologists, especially those working on projects related to issues of conservation and biodiversity. We provide entomological consultation regarding identification and biology of insect and spider pests as well as "bugs" that people are just curious in knowing about.
