Please consider joining the Biodiversity of South India project if you are from South India or are willing to join. This collection project was made to compile all the observations from South India (Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Puducherry, and Goa) in one place. I hope it makes it easy for people (especially researchers) to collect data from the region.

Hello everyone! :)
I am thinking about creating a WhatsApp group for the members of the project. One main reason for this is for voting on which observation(s) should be titled "Observation of the Week". It can also be used for ID doubts and other reasons.
The first "Observation of the Week" is to be announced tomorrow.
Views are appreciated. :)

Thanking you,

This is the first set of "Observation(s) of the week" for this project! I hope you all like them! :)

1. Rhinophis karinthandani from Kerala by @davidraju758
   There are three observations, since the photos are not combined. Here are the other two:
   a) https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/107455567
   b) https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/107455568
   This shieldtail is an iNat first!

2. Widenose Guitarfish (Glaucostegus obtusus) from Kerala by @demonkingfrommalabar
   This critically endangered fish has a very unique shape, almost like a guitar!

3. Wayanad Bush Frog (Pseudophilautus wynaadensis) from Kerala by @hejil

Congratulations everyone!
