iNaturalist annotations

The online version of iNaturalist includes a panel called ‘annotations’ where one can assign a number of attributes such as life stage and sex. If you are a tick expert, then please help select the correct entries.

For information describing annotations, what are they and why they are useful click here. This page also provides directions on how to use the iNat Identify tool and rapidly annotate many observations.

A third attribute is ‘alive or dead’. If you kill the tick shortly after sighting it that is fine – but record the attribute as ‘living’ as this was the case when the tick was initially observed!
