Entomologist Shaun Winterton discovered a new species of green lacewing in an unusual place: on his computer screen.

Guek Hock Ping, a nature photographer, had taken the picture while in Malaysia. After Winterton sent the link around to his colleagues, who were also unfamiliar with this particular lacewing, he got in touch with Guek. A year later, Guek was again in Malaysia and was able to capture a green lacewing specimen, which Winterton was able to confirm was a previously undiscovered species. The bug has been named Semachrysa jade taking its species name from Winterton   daughter. I hope Guek got first refusal on the naming. This incident points to the power of image hosting services as image crowdsourcing. Guek took the photo in Malaysia, but didn ;t have the expertise to identify it as a new species.
