Topic: Synonym needs to link to preferred name Oxypoda brevicollis/O.umbrata

Hi. According the the UK Coleoptera Checklist,
Oxypoda umbrata NBNSYS0000024056
is a junior synonym for
Oxypoda brevicollis NBNSYS0000153030 (which is the preferred name).

Please can these two be linked on the NBN Gateway,
Many thanks
Stuart

Thanks Stuart - all done :)  I think the confusion came from the other 'auctt' synonym of umbrata
