Thanks for reporting. ".JPG" files added in d64fd7c5. In your example, you'll need to blacklist e.g. File:Penion_cuvieranus_cuvieranus.JPG as a result (although that file may need to be moved!).

Personally I'm more doubtful about PNGs -- most of them I've seen are for navigation, so you'd have to invest a bunch of time blacklisting.

Thanks, adding .JPG files helped. Thanks for good tool.

There are always some files need to blacklist. For example just for gastropods only there are at least over 50 files on the blacklist. I had to blacklist also few more for JPG files today.

I request also adding .png and .PNG files. It is no problem to blacklist some files.

Fair enough. I don't really want to change the default after all this time, but I'm happy to add a checkbox: c58cc27e.

If you want to use it for every search, you may wish to bookmark https://tools.wmflabs.org/imagechecker/index.php?pngs=yes (or https://tools.wmflabs.org/imagechecker/index.php?lang=en&pngs=yes) to have the form prefilled for you.
