This webpage has been created to provide Scarab beetle checklists for Keith County, where CPBS is located, and for neighboring Arthur County, home to Arapaho Prairie, a Nature Conservancy site administered by the University of Nebraska. Images of these species are included to assist in identifying western Nebraska's scarab beetles.
Keith County: 116 scarabs
Arthur County: 61 scarabs

The project would have been impossible without the support of Al Kamil (director) of Cedar Point Biological Station. The project (and I) benefit greatly from the guidance and input of Brett Ratcliffe and Mary Liz Jameson of the UNSM.
