Not sure if this is a general bug worth reporting, or if it’s me doing something wrong, but I’ve noticed that when searching for Unknowns to ID, some of the observations displayed (all in the Kingdom Bacteria I believe) actually already have an ID. It’s not a big deal of course, just a bit annoying.…

From another thread: Identified Cyanobacteria etc showing up in the explore page when filtering by "Unknown species" Bacteria are shown as unknown as they’re not iconic taxa on iNat. It’s not a bug.
