I’ve just returned from a 5 week road trip from Adelaide to Cairns, during which I was lucky enough to make observations of many butterfly species (as well as other taxa)! Prior to the trip I had observed 39 butterfly species on iNaturalist (mostly in SA, Vic, NSW) but during the road trip I added observations of 63 species, of which 51 were new species to my iNaturalist list! The variety in northern Queensland is absolutely amazing.

I just wanted to say thanks to you for all the identifications you have made of my observations during my trip – so helpful! Often id's were made before I had sat down to see what I could figure out myself!
