@MichaelMulvaney wondering if would you be able to assist with the setup & verification of this one, suggesting it is a Staghorn Fern Window Spot Leaf Beetle (Halticorcus platycerii). Alison has started the process for me but I’m not comfortable completing the setup without someone with more experience looking into it first. Thanks so much😊

@AlisonMilton ah sweet, that makes sense😊@glossygal happy to help, I’d be happy to verify this, but as I’m new to NatureMapr I’m not comfortable setting up a species in the database so I agree with Alison, that this should be left to a more experienced moderator to finalise it for you💚

@DiBickers @GlossyGal Hi,

We don't need Aaron's help. Any Beetle moderator can add the new species, including myself. I made the suggestion but am not prepared to confirm it so have left it for a more experienced Moderator to check and add and verify the sighting.

Thank you for the explanation Di, and thank you for researching the ID. I'm hoping to add more sightings of insects over time so I'm glad there's someone out there who's looking at them!
