Help researchers gather data and specimens This is a list of research projects or researchers who could use the help of iNat users. This help can be searching for specific taxa, recording unique behaviours, or collecting samples or specimens. Make sure to be aware of collection laws when adding rese…

Hmm, yeah, maybe best to keep this wiki to researchers that speak english. Don’t really know what to do with a russian research group

Well, who said they can’t speak English? Plus they need material not only from Russia, pages can be auto translated.

You should add @mali4622 to Field Penny-Cress seeds part and @tzuest about Erysimum cheiranthoides seeds, they asked me, but I fail to find any that’re good for collection.

You can edit the wiki yourself! Perhaps add their profiles as links [1] and [2], if they’ve got helpful information for collecting the seeds?

I just think as I’m not the researcher I shouldn’t add them, like, what if they wouldn’t want that, etc.

You can send them a message on iNat and ask them if they want to be added to this wiki. I just did that with @dr_firefly, to ask him if he wanted to add his own project to here, or have me do it

[image] mws: All branches of life We run a general biodiversity conservation project in NE Vietnam and the species lists for our area are woefully incomplete. We are trying to generate a more complete biodiversity profile of the archipelago for use by our own conservation NGO as well as the lo…

yeah that’s the hard part about formatting it in a place like this, whereas sites like SciStarter have ways to sort by topic or location. most efforts are location-based anyways since most taxa don’t occur everywhere

There’s no Acer rubrum everywhere, no Cryptes baccatus either. How is Vietnam location is worse than bugs that only occur in Australia? Large majority of iNatters can’t go there either.

No-one needs to come to an area to assist in any project. Identifications are often far more useful than additional observations. This is where the lack generally is and where where the community as a whole can be extremely helpful.

It’s on this wiki. I believe we were instructed to add our projects to the first post, not comment them.
