Wildlife Spotting

Hello! Just to let you know the common name space of a spotting is for the common name of the species IFit is known. Likewise, the scientific name is reserved for scientific names. Questions, requests and messages cannot be placed in name fields (spaces). The best way to ask for help in identifying your spotting is to leave the scientific name blank and tick the box that says "Help me ID this species". That way it will show up as requesting ID assistance. Thank you.

Also known as Scarlet Flame and Cardinal's Guard and another scientific name: Thyrsacanthus tubaeformis, which may be a synonym but haven't had time to do any more research. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/1854/
