A name change....sort of

Greetings iNat,

After three years with iNaturalist, it's time for a change. As spiketails are my favorite ode genus, choosing Corudlegaster obliqua (the second half of the binomial being the common species on Oklahoma) seemed like a cool idea. Over time however, it's started to appear a little clunky and awkward, so time for a change. I considered other scientific names (Tachopteryx thoreyi was a candidate), but in the end, being to lazy to change my profile picture, ArrowheadSpiketail58 it is.

I have to admit I was confused by your name for more than a year and didn't think to google it. I was looking through a Odonate field guide one day when I saw your name and the light bulb went on. I had never considered that it was a genus and species mashed together.
