Hi Raun & welcome to Project Noah!
I've moved this to the arthropods category & provided the scientific name for you so that you can update the ID & we can take this off of the unknowns list. Where you know the species, please can you look up & add the scientific name. Because we have a global user base & sometimes many different common names for the same species, the system uses the scientific name to link similar spottings - which also means this may come up in the thumbnails on other spottings & more people may take a look & favorite it. Without the scientific name this will continue to show up as unidentified & you may get further ID suggestions from other users.
