Museums hold 2,019 specimens collected within 10 miles of Brownhelm between 1853 and 1975: 955 Animalia, 812 Fungi, 213 Plantae, 16 Protozoa, 13 Chromista, 10 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by ?, A. A. Wright, A. E. Recksecker 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.

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 1056729. The sheet list is computed by point-in-boundary test against the United States Geological Survey's historical topographic inventory.
