My Confusion : Identification Down to Species...

https://books.google.com/books?id=rZImAQAAMAAJ&pg=RA1-PA19&lpg=RA1-PA19&dq=cochineal+confusus&source=bl&ots=eUD0Tf8wgv&sig=nmkvble_IvzI4a15WtinTrTZEvA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjYhIvOt9jXAhVrqlQKHVlRCFQ4ChDoAQgQMAM

MY QUESTION:
Have been told that cochineal ( and Jeruselem Crickets and Old Man of the Woods) can NOT be identified to species with pics. So, why are species IDs available as a choice? I am soooo confused! Thanks!

ANSWER:
iNaturalist doesn't take into account whether or not a species can be identified to species level based on photos. Sometimes people also have additional non-photographic information to support species determination.

Hope that helps.

Thank you Carrie!
