This collection of 5 titles represents over 75 years of sponsorship of natural history publications by the Brigham Young University College of Life Sciences and its organizational predecessors. Two titles, Western North American Naturalist and Monographs of the Western North American Naturalist, are active serials featuring original peer-reviewed research stemming from western Canada, the United States west of the Mississippi River, and Mexico.

The quarterly journal Western North American Naturalist was formerly titled Great Basin Naturalist. The BYU Science Bulletin, Biological Series; preceded the Great Basin Naturalist Memoirs, and both were outlets for long-format manuscripts of broad scope—a role now filled by Monographs of the Western North American Naturalist.
