Easy one, until you struggle over Mimica and Lunata...

Why there is no Membracis lunata on iNat? Because Lunata is obviously a synonym of Foliatafasciata (which also is formerly called Membracis c-album). At least it is indicated when you search for Membracis lunata. And Lunata is not listed in the list of species.

So, please, check the story again, yours in Mimica :-)
