I'm an undergrad at Brandeis University. I've done morphological work on some groups of Mydas flies. Otherwise, my IDs are mostly based on field experience, taxonomic literature, and interaction with experts. Many thanks to everyone who makes iNat such a great resource!

Feel free to ask me to explain or elaborate my IDs.

I put together the following notes to help me process iNat observations more efficiently: https://sites.google.com/view/identifyflies

Many of my arthropod observations have been migrated along with their IDs from BugGuide.net; others appear here for the first time2.
