Photo taken with iPhone 6 with macro clip. Precise geodata and additional enhanced photo on its iNaturalist page: http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/1392763

Very nice!

 
Ebo to species?
Thanks Lynette - I'm interested in getting this to species if possible, but there are very few Ebo photos online. Is there anyone I can ask to take a look at this photo? Or another resource? Thanks for whatever you can suggest!
