We are constantly looking for photographers that can supplement our collection of species. So if you have collections of photos of groups (e.g. zoological groups) or from regions that we do not cover presently, you are welcome to contact us.

Plate function

(05-03-2012)

The plate function can give an overview over species in a family or photos in a Lightbox. The photos are shown in a relatively good size and the page is suitable for print.Try for example the family Butterflies/Nymphalidae and click the ..plate link in the right column. You can also collect a number of photos (from e.g. a specific location) in a Lightbox, and generate a plate.
