The following chart shows the number of observations for each species within the genus Erodium in California and the number of times the species has been misidentified in iNaturalist.
The total Research Grade IDs are shown in blue and the number of misidentifications are in orange. Misidentification data was obtained from the 'Taxa Info' page in iNaturalist under the 'Similar Species' tab. The data are further filtered to include only observations in California.
This is an update since the last time metrics were calculated for this genus in December 12, 2022. Notice that the cumulative number of misidentifications have dropped from 10.6% to 9.3%. For the time period between 2022-12-12 to 2024-01-17, the mis-ID rate was 5.5%, which is a significant improvement over the past year.
The following chart shows the number of observations for each species within the genus Erodium in California and the number of times the species has been misidentified in iNaturalist.
The total Research Grade IDs are shown in green and the number of misidentifications are in red. Misidentification data was obtained from the 'Taxa Info' page in iNaturalist under the 'Similar Species' tab. The data are further filtered to include only observations in California.
Improvements were calculated by subtracting counts for 'Observations' and 'Incorrect IDs' between 2022-12-12 to 2024-01-17.
