Welcome to Jim's "Odds and Insects"

The pages on this website show all of the real, preserved bugs and other creatures that I have available for purchase. They are all personally mounted in displays that are prepared by me, and most of the wings and other appendages are spread/positioned by me as well. 

After browsing the pages of the website, if you would like to arrange a purchase, request a customized offering, or ask a question, you can reach me at oddsandinsects@gmail.com and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Or check out my my Etsy site: OddsAndInsects 

Most of the offerings on these pages are available with the choice of frame color and presentation style shown below. Most include the common name, Latin name (genus and species), and location of collection printed below the specimen. Each also comes with a personally created 4"x6" information card specific to that specimen.
