As you can see from the list below, lots of gaps to be filled some of them covering entire orders! I also have to have a good look at the fungi I have seen as well as I am pretty sure I have missed lots.
While PSL might seems an exercise in kudos, I really don't think it is - my take on it is that it is more an exercise in learning (others may do it for kudos but I really don't get that impression). Thus, I am happy to publish lists of any of the superorders below and would be happy if anyone wanted to check through them to see whether I have made any glaring errors (if anyone can be bothered). Contact me via comments on the blog if you would like to see anything. I feel pretty confident with birds, odonata, butterflies, isopods and the fish as these are groups that I know well.

Pan species listing is certainly becoming more popular. I guess it stems from an interest in nature and one particular genus, say birds, and is a natural progression from there. I certainly have become more interested in all nature over the years from a beginning in birdwatching. Birds don't exist in a vaccuum, they eat insects and plants, etc, so an interest in other wildlife is important to understand and appreciate birds. Although I have seen more plant and insect species that I can't name than those I can! Good luck with the listing!
