Albert Cardona<p>“To identify a wasp with certainty it is thus always necessary to take a specimen, and it is the ecologist's abiding dilemma that if he catches an animal to identify it he can no longer watch it; if he leaves it so that he can watch its behaviour he cannot name it with certainty; and if he doesn't know what it is, he doesn't know what to look out for.”</p><p>From: “Solitary wasps”, by Peter Yeo and Sarah Corbet.</p><p><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/iNaturalist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>iNaturalist</span></a> has changed this lots, but not entirely for wasps: most it can only identify to the family level, or at best the genus.</p><p><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/entomology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>entomology</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/wasps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wasps</span></a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/SolitaryWasps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SolitaryWasps</span></a></p>
