Species new to the Bay Area from the City Nature Challenge

During the 2018 City Nature Challenge we ended up making observations of species that had not previously been recorded in the San Francisco Bay Area (the 9 counties that touch the bay). Some of these have made it to Research Grade, some are waiting to be confirmed or to have mis-IDs changed. Help us refine this list to figure out exactly what species we added in the Bay Area during the City Nature Challenge!
