iNaturalist tallies the number of observations made as well as the number of species contributed by each observer. Unless further duplicate observations are made, the number of observations will remain static, and the number of species will continue to increase as more observations are identified.
Though the number of species is dependent on the identifiers, some individuals take on the challenge of observing a wide variety of species, instead of making observations of every organism seen (which will have duplicate observations of species).
A total of 10,011 species were recorded during the GSB 2023. Well done to these participants who made the Top 20 list of the number of species contributed during the event:
