A few ways to do that might be de-emphasizing the placeholder by placing it below the taxa search results, removing the placeholder entirely if there are matching search results, and/or adding an empty state for the taxa search results, something like \"No species found, please adjust your search terms if you want make a precise ID, or perhaps you'd like to add this text as a placeholder?\"'\r\n\r\nCurrently we show when there are matches (left) and when there are no matches (right):\r\n<img width=\"601\" alt=\"screen shot 2016-07-29 at 5 21 55 pm\" src=\"https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/598026/17266746/f800497a-55b0-11e6-8758-da16b6c92bb4.png\">\r\nPropose we show something like this when there are matches (left) and when there are no matches (right):\r\n<img width=\"599\" alt=\"screen shot 2016-07-29 at 5 14 24 pm\" src=\"https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/598026/17266664/ecf11682-55af-11e6-85f4-aa902fa380f5.png\">\r\n\r\nthoughts on styling @joellebel ? thoughts on impacts for people who purposefully use placeholders @kueda ?"}}
