Surprising. There must be a lot of limited range species of bugs in the Appalachians.

I thought global warming would threaten unique Arctic species in Alaska.

There are probably fewer species to begin with in Alaska.

Not really - Virginia, North Carolina, and Tennessee are all next to each other.

Arizona surprised me. The others made sense, as they were either states that I would expect to have large numbers of native species (e.g., Florida, Hawaii) or states with a lot of variety in terms of climate/land type/etc. (e.g., California, North Carolina, Texas). But Arizona seems like largely a dry, dessert state that wouldn't have as many species to begin with.

When you are in deserts you get a lot of micro-climates, which in theory create islands of diversity that leads to speciation.
