UCR Entomology Department maintains a collection of living arthropods for

species of insects, arachnids, millipedes, and more, housed in Entomology.
Duties include feeding of the collections and maintenance of the terrariums and
aquariums. The Department is aiming on growing its Insect Zoo, so student
employees will have the opportunity to help shape the direction of this
collection. Student employees will be supervised by the chair of the Outreach
Committee in Entomology, currently Dr. Christiane Weirauch.</span></p>
