We have liftoff....

Wow, with more iNatters out searching, the number of observations and number of buprestid species observed in SA have both rocketed in recent weeks. I did wonder if all the observations would come from the southern Mt Lofty Ranges but I'm pleased to see that there's quite a good scatter across SA, including some very interesting finds. Thanks must go to local researcher, Peter Lang, who has provided expert opinion and IDs to help things along. I've definitely learned a lot in recent weeks and, as anticipated, to be able to compare multiple observations, displaying local variation, has helped 'get my eye in' with the commoner species. The season isn't over yet so keep the observations coming!
