Maggie Whitson commented on "EOL Curators":
Is there any way for curators to edit the descriptions of images? I've seen a lot of neat images showing particular traits of the organisms that won't come up if you search for that trait because the image was not submitted with a description. Any inofrmation would be appreciated.

Maggie Whitson commented on "Image of Phidippus clarus":
Phidippus are jumping spiders, and should just have a row of four large eyes in the front, with another four spread back along the sides of the "head". Spiders with all of their eyes clustered in the front like this fall into other groups.
