The only solution is to implement the exclude taxa option.
The biggest problem with collection project for moths is there are many moth observations which the observer will not know what family or even superfamily and as there is one one superfamily for moth, the observation will most likely be id as Lepidoptera and will not appear in the collection project. So the moth project will miss out many observations.

Thanks everyone for your feedback.I'm in a bit of a conundrum now because I like the idea of observations automatically being collected into the project, but there are a significant number of unidentified moths that are lumped in "Lepidoptera" and I don't think they will get identification help from other project members if they're not in the project. I think for now I will leave my project alone and try to manually add more observations that are missing from the project.Back to my original question, a "bulk add to project" feature would be super handy!

I would just add that an observation that is ID'd as Lepidoptera right now, which doesn't appear in the collection project right now, will appear automatically in the collection project in the future if and when it is ultimately identified to a family or superfamily of moths in the project's criteria.

A batch add would be awesome. For now I manually scan lep observations and add them to project.
