Topic: Centaurium minus auct.

I have noticed this synonym of Centaurium erythraea no longer appears in Recorder, nor on the NHM Species Dictionary, the only mastch for C.minus id the Moench. version as a synonym of C.littorale.

C.minus auct. is in Stace v3 and mor importantly on the RP3 recording card, so now these records are likely to be entered as C.littorale in error

Can the C.minus auct. entry be reinstated (I think it was in Recorder 3)

Re: Centaurium minus auct.

Hi Craig - is there a way you can find a TVK for it? Then I can work out what has happened to the name - if it was deleted for use in the UKSI or just amended to read differently?
