As someone who generates a lot of unknown observations:
- I had a bad data connection in the field
- I don’t feel like typing out sci names with my thumbs
- It was cold and I was wearing gloves
- I’m uploading a ton of observations and plan to use /Identify to add IDs because it’s so much easier to do it there than on the uploads page
- I know it’s between a couple species and will key it out at some point
- I collected a specimen and plan to key it out at some point
- I don’t even know what kingdom it belongs to and adding a “Life” ID seems silly
- It’s an easy taxon that I don’t personally know but do know the community will prob ID in like 2 minutes
- I’m feeling lazy
- I forgot
- sorry : )
