#geometridae — Public Fediverse posts

An updated checklist of geometrid #moths (~14% of all moths) was published last year as the Online #Taxonomic Facility of #Geometridae

https://geometroidea.smns-bw.org/introduction

The data are now also in #ChecklistBank and will replace the current outdated #LepIndex list in #CatalogueOfLife, @gbif, etc.

I've also edited #Notodontidae in the @TaxonWorks Global Lepidoptera Index dataset at least to match Schintlmeister's 2013 catalogue (now handling later works):
