Hi macolless, pretty sure this is a bee rather than an ant, but for some reason the system won’t let me suggest it! Cheers, Jon

@JonLewis Jon, Sadly, unless you are an admistrator you can't suggest a different genus unless you drill down to a specific species. A (non)-feature I find frustrating.

Agree, frustrating when the category is known but not able to suggest it unless specific species is also known.

Actually because of the pollinator study most insect groups now have a general catch-all "species" category usually found in the other category, but as bees only has the one main category it is under that
