I'm thinking your collection of unidentified orchids is so large, it may be useful to collect them in a list and try to find some experts to identify them. I know it's some work, but could be worthwhile to boost both your species number as well as enrich the species tree. Give it a thought.

Same goes for your moths hehe. Posted 6 years ago

      Ha ha, main objective is always to get the Observations identified :D
      Its a slow process and at times, frustrating.
      
      Despite over a thousand un-identified observations, I still have one of the highest observations identified to species level and a few hundreds to genus level :D Posted 6 years ago

        No doubt about that, and it can be boosted further regarding moths and orchids. No worries though, it's just a thought and I know it's an insane amount of work. Posted 6 years ago
