The Lifelist of Wyrmriven

Return to Main Page.

One of my hobbies is documenting the species I come across day to day, I shall name every species I know for sure I have seen here. If I have seen a member of a species complex and am not sure what exact species it is, it will be included, though I will specify it as being a part of a complex. If one is interested in starting their own lifelist, please be responsible and don't put yourself in danger, don't disturb the wildlife, avoid stepping on plants, and be respectful of the people around you. Organisms which have a "*" next to their names signify that I have been searching for this organism for some amount of time before being able to add it to my lifelist, while those with a "†" are ones I consider to be a favorite of mine.

A list of species I have not seen but would like to is found here.
