I spot @ vibrant nhm 10.1.13

Notas do Editor

  1. iSpot uses the wisdom in the crowd, but is designed for learning so we expect the structure of the network to change over time A name is the quantum of learning in biodiversity A name is a key to knowledge With a name you can share what you have seen & find out more about it The process of discovering the correct name is a lightbulb moment Now have nearly 17,000 registered users and over 90,000 observations
  2. Hedges are great places for wildlife and thousands more observations of wildlife found in these habitats have been posted on iSpot Here are just a handful seen earlier this month. Cranefly, AndyK Pied shieldbug, chrisbrooks Commom carder bee, chrisbrooks Greater stichwort, heathboy Small white, dodgydoug Bunias orientalis, martinjohnbishop Goldfinch, Glen1 Vapourer caterpillar, IanPeirce777 hoverfly ( Dasysyrphus albostriatus) , davidcareyhadlow Chaffinch, Alison_Reid99 Cuckoo flower & orange tip egg, moremoth Hawthorn, gramandy Weeping Widow, Jonathan Green alkanet, Teesider female blackcap jeremy015 Xanthoria parietina, martinjohnbishop
  3. Votes, weighted by reputation in the group in question Half of observations posted with no name receive a likely ID inside an hour and 88% within a day.
  4. As users progress from their first to their 50 th observation posted on iSpot, they are more and more likely to be able to identify what they have seen for themselves.
  5. http://www.ispot.org.uk/node/98950 Pyrrhocoris apterus in London http://www.ispot.org.uk/node/124751 Palomena prasina http://www.ispot.org.uk/node/133398 Corizus hyoscyami
  6. Updated with Martins new analysis 6 Jan 2012 The 281 BAP spp imclude about 50 spp of moths that are still widespread, but that are listed because they are declining & need research Some species are on more than one conservation list
  7. This uses 2 cloud services – Google maps and the Red List for SA to obfuscate the locations of sensitive species
