Sue Carnahan, Contributing Editor
City, state, country:
Santa Cruz County, Arizona
Biography:

I live on Salero Ranch, an active cattle ranch & rural subdivision on 16,000 acres of semi-desert grassland in SE Arizona, south of the Santa Rita Mountains and about 20 miles north of the border with Mexico. I am a botanist working on a checklist of the plants of Santa Cruz County, and I photograph insects, reptiles, and other critters in the course of hiking and specimen collecting. My entomological knowledge is very scattershot, but I am particularly interested in moths. I am grateful to the generous folks who share their expertise on BugGuide. I post regularly to iNaturalist (arthropods, plants, etc.): https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?place_id=any&user_id=suecar&verifiable=any
