Description

The European Ladybird Survey aims to encourage the recording of ladybirds across Europe. Over the coming years we hope to extend the app and associated website to include all European countries. We are excited to have the opportunity to collaborate with you all in mapping the distribution of ladybirds at this large scale. Over time the information gathered will be used in many different ways to assess the status and trends of European ladybirds.

Fine app with minor flaws

Assuming uploads are actually of value to anybody, this is a useful app. If you're ladybird-curious, it serves as a nice log of your own sightings too.
I can't sign in (I have a hyphen in my email addr and special characters in my password, otherwise everything seems innocent enough), but it throws a json error after which the app must be killed.
Would be useful if you could amend a recording with later photos.
The ladybird descriptions could include photos of larval and pupal stages, presumably they're as interesting as the fully developed ladybirds.
Seems to need full precision location, otherwise the app doesn't accept the reported device location. The map never showed for me (just som red circle and lines on a black background).
