Okay, I have two quick questions. Firstly, the rules still state they can have songs. What could have a song that they could ask about? Secondly, this one is about the Invertebrate species. What stages of life can they ask questions about or ask you to identify? I.E Egg, Larvae, Pupa, Adult

Idk for the songs.
But, for the invertebrates they can ask you any stage of life. I had a question ask me what instar on Chilli Thrips was in. I guessed there and probably got it wrong. Sorry for the late response. I saw it sometime before, but I didn't have an answer for the first one and I was a bit rushed.

Okay, awesome. Thank you so much for the help! I'm thinking the song thing might just be a typo or something they left in the rules, because the test event had mammals, but I just wanna make sure so as to be prepared.

One possibility for songs being included may be for songbirds being included in state invasive species lists.

Okay, that make sense. Thankfully, we don't have any of those on the list in Michigan, so I'm not too worried about that.

Well, mosquitoes buzz, beetles click and chirp and buzz (lower than a skeeter's high pitched whine) and nutria (depending on source you read) make a sound like a cow or pig.
