I’d love to have the ability to query observations by a list of target taxa, whether in the Explore interface or by aggregation in a Collection Project. The ultimate use case I have in mind is establishing a Locally Rare Plants of Marin County project that will aggregate observations based on the li…

[image] dgreenberger: I’d love to have the ability to query observations by a list of target taxa You can do this by creating a list: https://www.inaturalist.org/lists/ and then using list_id= on the Explore page. Such as observations of these spring wildflowers in the Chicago area: https:…

Cool, thanks. That will serve as a snapshot workaround for now. Entering the taxa individually in a project is not something I want to do, but I might just bite the bullet

From another topic: [image] Is there an limit for included or excluded taxa in a project? In my opinion we’d ideally allow lists as a filter option for collection projects and leave the managing of taxa sets to lists. Maybe @pleary can give a status update on whether this might get implemente…

@jwidness @pleary Hi, Just reviving this query on whether we can use lists with Collection Projects. It would be extremely useful to have this feature. We plan to have curated lists of native trees for different places and being able to upload a CSV file of tree species to a named list and then usi…

I don’t have any new information, sorry.

I want it for a project on Trees of southern Africa. I have the lists. I have a traditional project. But I want an automatic one. Adding in and thereafter managing 1500 species (on now two lists) is a schlep! Especially compared with how easy it is on Lists.

Yes, agree. We have a similar need here in southern India. Besides this feature, it would also be nice if when the table of observations is generated within a project, the species for which there are zero observations (from the list of species) are also listed in the table. Right now even if the pro…

Besides this feature, it would also be nice if when the table of observations is generated within a project, the species for which there are zero observations (from the list of species) are also listed in the table. The feature you want is in the checklist pages of places. e.g. https://www.inatura…

Thank you for that. Good to know. Took me a little time to find the link to checklist under places, but I think I get it now! Although the original point about enabling uploading a list of species as a CSV file to restrict Collection Projects to that set of species… is still needed I feel.

Is there any update on this? Very surprised that it is still not implemented. With many collection projects including/excluding hundreds of taxa, the ability to bulk upload taxa would be extremely useful to many (as mentioned above and in many other threads) and would presumably be fairly easy to im…
