Written for nature enthusiasts of all ages, citizen scientists and the scientific community. This profusely illustrated book is the result of a field survey and natural history study of Front Range insects and other arthropods such as spiders, solpugids and millipedes. It was conducted at many sites in Colorado's Front Range over 29 years. It includes 1224 different insects-dragonflies, grasshoppers, katydids, mantids, true bugs, beetles, flies, butterflies, moths, wasps, bees, flies and more- and 42 other arthropods-spiders, solpugids, ticks, millipedes and more. There are 2561 color photos, almost all taken in the wild in their native habitat, plus 59 diagrams and charts. It has descriptions, classifications, natural histories and distributions. Also, a section on arthropod biology, sources and references, a plant list of all plants mentioned in the text, an extensive index and a quick common name index are included plus a concise summary of the survey results.

This is a well-illustrated treatment of and guide to all the fossil and present-day species of butterflies in one of the richest areas in North America for butterfly diversity and study. For much of the year, the meadows, forests, and grassy slopes of the Florissant region of central Colorado are alive with butterflies - nearly 100 species of these fascinating and beautiful creatures. Many of them have unusual life histories: the larvae (caterpillars) of one species take two years to mature; others develop close associations with ants; and the adults of some species live only a few days, whereas others survive for months in winter hibernation. Central Colorado is also the site of the florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, which has yielded 12 of the 44 known species of butterfly fossils in the world. To find fossils of these delicate-winged creatures in such a perfect state of preservation is one of the wonders of nature, since the fossils have endured 35 million years of geologic activity, erosion, and climate change. Remarkably, most of the fossil species are closely related to various present-day species.
