To protect nature, we first need to get to know it ... and that's where identifying comes in.
Helping with identifications on iNaturalist is one of the best ways to directly contribute to our shared knowledge of the nature around us. Plus, learning to identify organisms can help deepen your connection with nature!

Your nature photos don't have to be “perfect” to be useful for science and conservation!
The #CityNatureChallenge (organized by @calacademy and @nhmla) is right around the corner, April 24–27. Here are four tips for making observations that the iNaturalist community (including professional scientists) can use to protect nature and biodiversity:
🤳 Get as close as you can, safely!
📸 Take photos from multiple angles — the more, the better.
📍 Include a location; this turns nice photos into useful data.
🔍 Add a broad identification! Even categories like "bird" or "insect" help experienced identifiers find observations of organisms they specialize in.
Happy observing! ✨

Biodiversity is everywhere — including near you!
May 22 is the International Day for Biological Diversity, and from May 15–31 we're inviting you to celebrate by paying closer attention to your nearby nature. Here's how:
1. Photograph something wild — weeds, insects, birds, whatever catches your eye.
2. Share your photo(s) on iNaturalist. When you add the location and date, they become records that can help inform science and conservation.
3. Join the International Day for Biodiversity project to see what people around the world are finding near them!
You don’t need to be an expert to join the iNaturalist community, and to celebrate your local biodiversity! Project link & more in our bio.

Two years ago, this Red-headed Spider Ant dragged a small, round spider across the sand and someone captured a photo. The resulting iNaturalist observation was categorized under "Order Araneae" (aka, "spiders") for a long time — until identifier djringer recognized it as Paraplectanoides crassipes, a rare orbweaver with only a handful of records. This is only the second one ever documented on iNaturalist!

Many observations on iNaturalist are identified to species, genus, or family. This one stops at Order — a broader category that contains entire families, genera, and species within it. Order Hexamerocerata is a group of pauropods, tiny relatives of centipedes and millipedes. And there are only 15 observations of this entire order on iNaturalist worldwide. This is one of them!

Meet a naturalist: Flo Grattarola (flo_grattarola on iNaturalist)!
Flo is a biologist and biodiversity researcher based in Prague who studies how species change over time — and the admin of @naturalistauy, Uruguay's iNaturalist community. She's helped bring together naturalists, scientists, government decision-makers, and more around biodiversity data that matters for the country. She's also a self-described curator of her community: helping people take better photos, add missing dates, and make observations that can be used for science and conservation.
Her top iNat advice: take more pictures, get closer, and use open licenses!
