Media Collection Cleaning Crew

Sometimes you find pretty strange things in EOL media collections. There are fish images in beetle collections, wasp images in plant collections, and dragonfly images in beetle collections. Some of these problems are due to homonyms (two or more organisms sharing the same name), but there are other cases where the underlying cause is not easy to figure out. If you find misplaced images or videos or sounds in an EOL media collection, please join this community and post them to the focus collection. We can then investigate these cases and hopefully clean up the affected media collections.
