Hi Nick, I have added the scientific name for you. If you could complete that box with the correct information on your spottings as they are identified it will enable the system to link them to others of the same species. This is important for us as we have contributers from all over the world using many different languages & common names - the latin scientific name however remains constant so we use this to collect data on the species.
