Diario del proyecto iNaturalist Stick and Leaf Insects Working Group

iNaturalist is a community of amateurs and professionals working together to create high quality biodiversity records for science by uploading and identifying each other’s photographs. Nearly 60% of the Global Biodiversity Information Facility Phasmid records from the last five years were generated by the iNaturalist community. If you enjoy identifying or photographing wild Phasmids, join us! Here’s how…

iNaturalist's taxonomy for phasmids is now up-to-date, following Phasmida Species File (PSF). This project page will serve as a place to discuss phasmid taxonomy on iNaturalist such as explicit deviations from PSF.

I, @bouteloua, have very little knowledge of phasmid taxonomy and would invite anyone interested to step forward to be a "taxon curator" for this group if they so choose. I've tagged some of the top observers and identifiers within this group, as well as some of the most active iNat curators, below.

You can follow this group by heading to its homepage and clicking "Follow" in the top right corner. Here is a link to the other Taxonomic Working Groups on iNaturalist:
