@dclump @harsiparker @colinpurrington @wildmacro @sarabseth @tparkeressig @katedolamore I invite you to join the project Gall Week 2022! September 3-11 2022 take photos of galls on any plant anywhere in North America and the world!
Project URL is https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/gall-week-2022
@graysquirrel !
Thanks @robinellison :)
Can someone tagged in the main post above confirm if you got a notification? I've noticed that sometimes the notifications only work if the tag is in a comment on the post, rather than the post itself. Not sure if they've fixed it or not yet.
The notification worked for me!
@graysquirrel Yep, I got a notification too.
Awesome, I guess they fixed it!
@khd
I got the notification @graysquirrel but in a quick perusal of main post did not see your name, so tagged you. :)

@glmory @bayareawalker @dgreenberger @morganstickrod @ulysses20 @samzanita @mdhero @efrenibarreta @alison_pollack fellow gall lovers I invite you to join the project Gall Week 2022! From September 3rd-11th 2022 photograph galls of any kind (fungal, insect, viral, etc) anywhere in North America and the world and add them to the project! https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/gall-week-2022
Yay! Thanks Merav!
@sebastiencarbonnelle
thanks @Merav! :D
Posted to Galls of California.
Woohoo! Can’t wait!
Thanks for the tag, count me in!
Thanks for the tag! Can't wait!
Thanks for the tag!!
Thanks for the tag!!
I've joined because I saw a note about it on the forum. So, I see there are a few observations already (August 8th); do you want gall observations added at any time, or just during the official Gall Week?
@lynnharper thanks for joining in!
The idea is to make observations between 9/3-9/11. Unfortunately, there is no way to set a date limit for a traditional project (such as this one), so it is practically open from now on. People need to understand the concept in order to use it correctly. I tried to have the rules embedded in the banner and the text, but I guess it's not clear to everyone.
If someone has any idea how to make it more clear, please let me know. Otherwise, we'll have to contact each person who makes this mistake from now till 9/3.
Ah, I didn't realize there can't be date limits for traditional projects - that makes sense now!
@nataliejagoda @owenrtm77 @gaojb @jkehoe @ankygrrl63 @samuel848 @coltercook
@jessehildebrand This might a fun project to add to BackyardBio since it is a global activity.
thanks @merav
@merav last year we had to manually add our observations to the project much Like we do dove the other gall projects
yes, it will be the same this year. The only option for a gall project is to use a traditional project, where you have to add your observations manually (and we cannot control the dates).
But you seem to have been able to do that last year
@leslie_flint Unfortunately "traditional" projects have no way to restrict dates automatically. Collection projects do, but since galls are caused by many different kingdoms, including undescribed species, there's not really a good way to set it up so it only collects galls and not everything else.
I asked about it in the forums and someone suggested making a collection project filtered by annotation field "evidence of presence=gall", which I thought was an excellent idea but now realize that annotation field isn't available for unidentified observations.
@graysquirrel I get it! I just tried entering a gall I found today into the project and it accepted it. One thing that could be done if any observations are entered before the correct date is for the curator to ask the person to remove it. That could be time consuming and tedious so we just have to hope people honor the dates.
@leslie_flint It's also possible for project admins to remove any unsuitable observations - if it becomes an issue, I'd be happy to have @merav make me a mod and help out with that. Hopefully it's all good now though.
The City Nature Challenge uses specific dates, so I don’t understand why you can’t on this project. @kestrel ?
I already had to remove some observations, and contact a couple of people. We still have plenty of time, so I'd appreciate the help, @graysquirrel!
@leslie_flint The Nature Challenge is different. It has clearly defined parameters (dates and location) and automatically adds everything that fits those parameters. This project is limited to a poorly defined group of observations: galls.
The key parameter for this project -- that an observation includes a photo of an actual gall -- cannot be defined precisely using a list of taxa. So each person has to add the observations that she or he believes belong in the project. Yes, iNat could come up with programming to allow a traditional project like this one to set date parameters. But they have decided not to add this feature.
Thanks @merav - and all - for your effort and future contributions and/or identifications. It was fun last year to see here what I cannot observe in my area.
I am far from being an expert. May I ask if leafminers (Agromyzidae) are considered as gall formers for the present project ? Any other species that I/some put in projects (such Galls of North America) but don’t belong there ?
Thanks in advance.
Still excited by my yesterday’s find of a very new Disholcaspis quercusmamma gall, sweating honeydew, and the support of the iNat community, including @megachile.
Merci.
@makayla-in-the-mountains Want to meet up sometime during this time and do a day of gall blitzing?
@graysquirrel - I do! :)
@merav Let's do it! Want to come up to Marin? I know some good spots
@albertros so you're in the loop too :)
@alice_casiraghi @nicolas_perez_hidalgo @nschwab
@merav , I would like to spread the word of this event here in Portugal. Do you have any designed flyer with the basic info and logo to be used to engage people to participate?
If not, I think It could be nice to try to design some flyer to spread throughtout social media and in diferent places :)
I can volunteer to this task if you provide me some info :)
Thank you so much for the invite, I'll definitely join. I'm recovering from surgery right now and I'm not sure if I will feel well enough in time, but even if I can make just one walk to the park, I hope I can contribute this year! I massively look forward to seeing what everyone can find this year!
Thanks for the tag! Sounds like fun :)
I am in! Doing the socially distant bioblitz that overlaps with this bioblitz, so it works well!

Hey Gallfriends! Today is the kickoff to Gall Week 2022! Once you have joined the project be sure to manually add your gall observations! https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/gall-week-2022 See you out there!
