Breakdowns

Any category with fewer than 5 requests is grouped into “Other or withheld”, so a requester cannot be identified from a rare combination of place, topic, or expertise. That is why a new or quiet period can read as mostly withheld; the numbers fill in as more requests come through.

During Calendar year 2026, I served as a specialist contact for EntoFacet / the Ommatidium Project, a UK-led volunteer initiative widening access to invertebrate science. I worked on 47 requests routed to me, across 8 broad taxonomic or help areas, with 34 recorded introductions or outcomes. The wider project supported requesters across at least 3 countries or broad regions. Small categories are withheld to protect requester privacy.

Service paragraph

During Calendar year 2026, I provided specialist advice through EntoFacet / the Ommatidium Project, a UK-led volunteer network connecting people interested in invertebrate science with mentors, specialists, and practical guidance. I responded to 47 requests routed to me, spanning 8 broad taxonomic or help areas, with 34 recorded introductions or outcomes, including 28 resolved. These figures are aggregate and privacy-protecting; small categories are withheld to prevent identification of requesters.
