Many small bees, wasps and ants have yet to be determined. A few small beetles are also unidentified. It is estimated that approximately 260 different kinds of insects have currently been collected from the refuge. The microlepidoptera have essentially been ignored Because of the detailed studies performed by Jerry Powell. Their current status may need to be considered. * indicates collection or observation of taxon at the Stamm Parcel. @ indicates collection or observation of taxon at the Sardis Parcel. No symbol by a taxon indicates that it was found at both refuge parcels. .
