Additional organisms included

A big thank you to @astrapia for spotting some organisms and groups of organisms missing from the project.

I've added the following groups:

  • All members of the Psylloidea superfamily. Previously I just looked for Psyllidae and Triozidae, but this missed out Livia and Psyllopsis which are now in Lividae.
  • Scale insects: Chinapsis salicis and the Asterodiapsis oak scales
  • Hexomyia and Euhexomyia twig-galler moths
  • Claviceps ergot fungi
  • Chlrops flies
  • Tetramesa, gall wasps on grasses (in the superfamily Chalcidoidea not Cynipoidea).

I'm aware that no weevils are currently included in the scope. I'll review how to do this and add them shortly.

Three genera of willow galling sawflies, Pontania, Eupontania and Phyllocolpa, are now all subsumed in Euura, which will allow the removal of the rules collecting these insects.

If anyone spots other omissions do let me know, via comments or DM. The advantage of a collection project is that once the rule is update it applies to all observations not just those going forward.
