• Decodes nr-horariana

  Decodes nr-horariana is a crane fly species in the family Limoniidae. The 'nr-' prefix indicates this is a near-reference specimen that closely resembles D. horariana but has not been formally confirmed as that species through detailed taxonomic examination. Limoniid crane flies are generally small to medium-sized flies with reduced wing venation compared to their larger relatives in Tipulidae.

• Gnorimoschema nr-septentrionella-two

  Gnorimoschema nr-septentrionella-two is a species of gelechiid moth in the genus Gnorimoschema. The "nr" designation indicates this is a near-reference specimen that closely resembles but may not be definitively identified as Gnorimoschema septentrionella. The "two" suffix suggests it represents a second distinct morphotype or genetic cluster within this near-septentrionella group. Species in this genus are typically small moths associated with herbaceous host plants, often forming galls or feeding internally in stems or roots.
