I made a github issue: https://github.com/inaturalist/inaturalist/issues/4296. Note that Australia is not a continent-level place on iNat, it’s under the “continent” of Oceania.
Workarounds:
- use the header search to search for a continent.
- edit the search URL and add
place=
and the continent place number.
Continent-level place ID numbers:
oceania: 97393
south america: 97389
africa: 97392
asia: 97395
europe:97391
north america: 97394
