Thanks Daniele.

You're welcome Marcos!
Here are a couple of tips for you:
- As per our guidelines, under Habitat could you please describe the actual habitat where the spotting was made. This is the most important information you can provide on Project Noah. From our FAQ page: "Habitat: Please state the actual habitat where you photographed the spotting - this information can then be used to track changes in habitat, such as those caused by human intervention or habitat destruction. Again, it is not necessary to state published habitat information here, this can be referenced in the 'reference links' box".

- On Project Noah you can join missions and then add your spottings to them (when you create them or by editing them). This would be perfect for the 2018 Best Photo mission, which has an emphasis on habitat:

You're on a roll Marquinhos Aventureiro, your impressive rabble of butterflies is our Spotting of the Day:
"Now that's a rabble in our Spotting of the Day! How many different butterfly species are seen mud-puddling in this shot? Check out the spotting to find out! Mud-puddling is a behavior most commonly seen with males butterflies, where they seek out nutrients such as salts and amino acids from fluid in mud or decaying matter. While the word rabble is normally used to describe a disorderly crowd, it is also used as a collective noun for butterflies. Another collective noun is kaleidoscope of butterflies, quite appropriate here!"
