The valley elderberry longhorn beetle (Desmocerus californicus dimorphus) has several adaptations that enable it to thrive in its habitat. One key adaptation is its specialized feeding behavior, as the larvae feed on the soft pith of elderberry plants, which are their primary host. Additionally, their elongated antennae help them navigate through vegetation and locate mates. The beetle's cryptic coloration also aids in camouflage, protecting it from predators.
There are over 10,000 species of beetles that inhabit the Coachella Valley. These include the Tiger beetle, ground beetle, and the Stag beetle.
Devil's Hole Pupfish - lives in isolated springs and ponds that are scarce throughout Death Valley. - Only four species of the fish live in these ponds.
the dungus tree it also houses the dung beetle.
Rivers provided water for the crops- but also exposed crops to flooding.
