Identification

Identification is important and you don't need to be a biologist nor an expert to contribute. as a rule of thumb, I started with aiming to identify 3x as many of others' observations as my own. I mostly focus on identifying:

• Plants in British Columbia, Canada
• Moths in British Columbia, Canada
• Occasionally local birds in BC.

I encourage you to help as well:

• Help ID Flowering Plants
• Help ID Moths & Butterflies
• Help ID just Moths in BC

Two Journal entries that I use as identification references:

1. Species Identification in British Columbia (My personal compendium of online species ID references.)
2. Moths + Buterflies of British Columbia, Visual Lists (Listing of all of the superfamilies within Lepidoptera, with links to the corresponding iNat species grid.)

Useful iNat Links

• Heatmap of observations
• Maverick observations
• 2020 year in review
• List of observations with species counts
• Identify BC moths (excluding butterflies)
