Museums hold 348 specimens collected within 10 miles of Bloom Center between 1894 and 1975: 341 Animalia, 5 Fungi, 2 Plantae. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by B. BURGER, C. Triplehorn, Creamer, D. and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.

All 348 specimens within 10 miles, at the Global Biodiversity Information Facility.

The eight closest, with where each one stands in the county. Distances are straight-line, computed from the Geographic Names Information System coordinates.

Matched on this settlement's Geographic Names Information System number rather than its name, so it cannot be a different place of the same name in another state.

This settlement is recorded in the Geographic Names Information System as feature 1064449. The sheet list is computed by point-in-boundary test against the United States Geological Survey's historical topographic inventory. Both are works of the United States government and carry no copyright under 17 U.S.C. 105.
