  1. Dorsal and lateral views need to accompany this one. How? Posted 7 years ago, modified 7 years ago
    1. Do you mean you have additional angles on this find? If so, you can just upload those as well, and copy their URLs into a comment or description.

  2. Thank you for adding the sci.name and the welcome. Australia will have many species that might not yet be on Wiki. The site is a great piece of work. Congratulations. Posted 7 years ago
    1. All those species are very welcome here, so in case Wikipedia has no match, just use "request manual species creation" option in the species identification dialog. Either me or one of the moderators will then manually create the species, usually within a few hours. Looking forward to your work, Mark! Posted 7 years ago
