The Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation is an international nonprofit organization that protects the natural world through the conservation of invertebrates and their habitats. As a science-based organization, we both conduct our own research and rely upon the most up-to-date information to guide our conservation work. Our key program areas are: pollinator conservation, endangered species conservation, and reducing pesticide use and impacts.

Leave the Leaves for Invertebrates
Invertebrates rely on fallen leaves and other organic debris to cover and insulate them from the elements. Whatever your landscape, you can ensure that resources for nests and overwintering habitat are available.
Western Monarch Count
The Western Monarch Count is an annual effort of volunteer community scientists to collect data on the status of the western monarch population along the Pacific coast during the overwintering season, which occurs from approximately October through March.
