Happy Be Nice to Bugs Day! 🦋 Jasmine Brambila is a rising senior majoring in Agricultural Biology with a concentration in Entomology. Her favorite insect in the museum? The Sphinx Moth — These fascinating moths resemble hummingbirds and play a key role in pollination.
Part of CSU’s Agricultural Biology department, the C.P. Gillette Museum of Arthropod Diversity houses nearly 5 million specimens. The museum supports CSU’s land-grant mission by advancing discovery, preservation, and appreciation of arthropod diversity in the Rocky Mountain region and beyond through research, teaching, and extension.
