Topic: Dictionary Error? Few Flowered Fumitory

On my version of Recorder (currently on 6.24, Dict 3B), in the taxon browser, Few-Flowered Fumitory shows up as the common name for Fumaria muralis subsp. boraei and for Fumaria vaillantii.  I believe this is an error, and that Fumaria muralis subsp. boraei should have the common name of Boreau's Ramping-fumitory.

Cheers,
Andy.

Re: Dictionary Error? Few Flowered Fumitory

Hi Andy

That doesn't come up like that here in the master copy. There are 3 slight variations on that common name - all attached to vaillantii. It could be an issue with the Recorder installation or it might be something that was tidied up recently. :)  Maybe ask Mike Weideli if he can look into it?

Best wishes,
Chris R.

Re: Dictionary Error? Few Flowered Fumitory

Looks like it's coming from the Recorder 3 checklist (presumably an error as vallanti also has Few-flowered as the common name, and the other two subsp under muralis have the common name common fumitory, as the species)

Re: Dictionary Error? Few Flowered Fumitory

Thanks Chris

I'm seeing this in both the Vascular Plants recommended checklist (Dict 3B, Rec 6.24) and the Recorder 3.3 checklist.

Cheers,
Andy.
