Hi there! While we appreciate the enthusiasm, please be checking ranges before you suggest IDs. Nearly all of the IDs you have suggested are not on the correct continent, and you also have not been including reference links with the suggestions, which we find to be essential for an ID suggestion. Because of these two reasons, almost all of your ID suggestions have been removed. We try to prevent the spread of misinformation as much as possible, and if you will read the reference links before you go to include it on a suggestion, that is a great way to see that ranges don't match. Then you can just not suggest the ID at that point as it is not correct. Many users do not double-check with an ID suggestion before accepting it, so they would then have very incorrectly identified organisms, and that is the opposite of what we try to accomplish on this site. So in the future, please check out all aspects of an ID suggestion before making one, then include a reference link with it if ranges match up. Thank you!
