      Related to insects, specifically about Lepidoptera (rhopalocera) there are 135 species, and Odonata 65 species... And a lot more from all of the other Orders to discover, to record, to describe, and to share. An endless journey, for sure ;) Thank you so much, and congratulations for all the work here promoted. This is a great platform* Cheers! Posted 9 years ago
