observation field: Animal traces & annotation group: Life stage

Hi there,

today I experienced that I need some additional search options in order to find specific observations of my own, and created an observation field in order to filter the search for animal traces. Maybe some of you might want to use it as well, so I thought I share it here ;-)

• Field's name is: Animal traces, https://www.inaturalist.org/observation_fields/12861
• given values for the field: see Appendix
• you need to add this fields to your observations you have the feeling you might want to find again
• url for observations in Leipzig Riverside Forest with this added observation field is: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?project_id=leipzig-riverside-forest&verifiable=any&place_id=any&field:Animal%20traces
• in order to search for observations with certain values you can add "=[value name]" in the url
• spaces need to be replaced with "%20"
• more info regarding url/observtion fields in the forum https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/how-to-use-inaturalists-search-urls-wiki/63#heading--obs--field

Note that there are no values for eggs, larval stage cocoons and so on, as they can be searched for with the life stage annotations.

• &term_id= 1 (for annotation group life stage)
• &term_value_id= - the value within the group, e.g. 2=Adult, 3=Teneral, 4=Pupa, 5=Nymph, 6=Larva, 7=Egg, 8=Juvenile, 16=Subimago
• only for observations stuck in higher taxa ID where wanted life stage annotation is not available, I added a value: lifestageannot pending

Happy for hints for missing options in this observation field. Have fun tracking traces!

Cheers
Monika
