Perfect mate. Thank you. Just tweaking some things, hopefully we'll be in business shortly (small teething bugs).

@MatthewFrawley it didn't like this one. It said 44.8% probability it was Erina hyacinthina - is that correct? It's not sure enough. I.e. needs more images of the correct species uploaded and confirmed in order to learn to recognise this species better.

@AaronClausen I did think this one is E. hyacinthina based on the distinct black spot seen on the forewing underside, do you agree @owenh ?

Agree with you @MatthewFrawley . Is the system also seeing E. acasta which has less distinct 'spots' in this area of the fw underside (see CNM images for examples of same)?

@AaronClausen thanks for that - was just wondering if it was confusing the two species re the 'spots' but you have just answered that one.
