I'm curious @AaronClausen about this suggestion by @CarbonAI of Hypocysta metirius when there are only 3 images available?

Hey @MatthewFrawley - it pulls from all regions now that we have the underlying global taxonomy in place. There seems to be heaps of this species at the South Coast: Hypocysta metirius so they have also been used for training this species.. Hence 80 images trained despite only 3 being in Canberra.

this species is common along the coast, however not well known (on CNM at least in the canberra region, given these records appear to the first from this area. I am aware that some in the entomological community know about these populations, and may have recorded them elsewhere. surrounding NSW needs some love when it comes to recording such things
