Nevada is blank on the data maps for many taxa, even when nearby states are shaded. (Being in California, I look up a lot of Western species.) There may just not be enough Nevadans observing and reporting, and then so much of the state is dry that creatures that need a moist habitat wouldn't thrive there.
