A test for @CarbonAI with Blues & Coppers (Lycaenidae)

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)?

@owenh unfortunately it's not (yet), we don't yet have sufficient images of that species for it to learn. I'm going to add some info on the category and species pages (today) so that you guys will be able to quickly glance and know if @CarbonAI has learnt a particular species or not.

Thanks @AaronClausen that's brilliant.

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