A community science project of the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation, the Firefly Atlas engages land managers, biologists and the public to map and track lightning bug species, with a special focus on imperiled species like the loopy five firefly! The Firefly Atlas uses catch-photograph-release methods along firefly flash notes to document and identify firefly species. Learn more at:

The Southeast Bumble Bee Atlas is a community science project that aims to track and conserve the bumble bees of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Tennessee. The project relies on a catch-photograph-release method to collect information about bumble bees and their habitats. All you need is a net, a camera, some small containers, and some ice - no prior experience is required! Learn more at:
