Alexander, sorry, I forgot to note yesterday.
If possible, these should be translated into English (as the second language of the site, which is international).

Vasily, I mostly agree, but it’s difficult to provide labels in some languages: Chinese, Thai, Arabic, Hebrew, etc. :)

Now to the point :)
I prefer to write label information for those insects that were not collected by me in the language in which the original label (which is attached to the insect), was written.
Label is a passport of an insect in an entomological collection.
P.S. Let's write in Russian for those animals that were collected/photographed in Russia and in those cases if the collector/photographer writes himself.

This is exactly why you need to write in Russian!

Average Russian person will read the Latin letter “H” exactly as the Cyrillic “X”.
Example: the name of the company "Henkel" in Russian sounds like "Хенкель" :)

No no no! This is exactly how it's pronounced it, according to English Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huelva

I guess the author of the Wikipedia article are Russians.
And the Spaniards, they are like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Z29GhO7RvY :)))

On the contrary - if in Russian, then there are no dubious associations: https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huelva

Spain is a delicate matter :)
One example when it is better to fill out geography in foreign languages. In this case it is the name of the province.
