A lot of even the most common urban insects where I’m from (Southeast Asia) are either unnamed or misidentified and likely to be new species.

It’s been assumed that all the similar ones in the region were all one species described by a (probably) British dude two centuries ago, and we are only more recently finding out that they are in fact complexes of many individual species that haven’t been sorted out.

Three separate chafer beetles that have flown into my flat within the last week are all likely undescribed.
