The Natural History of the Black Range is diverse and complicated and to a remarkable extent unexplored and undocumented. There are several works which cover species found in the Black Range and others which cover the ecosystem types found in the Black Range. There are also works which describe the effects that humans have had on the area. In general, we focus on the works of authors who live in the Black Range. Hopefully, the following resources will help you understand and appreciate the beauty of this part of the world.
