The following screen shot shows it best - is there a reason why Coccinella septempunctata has been triplicated and others duplicated?

Hello Charlie
Its to do with the underlying taxonversionkeys that were used to record the species in the dataset submitted to the NBN Gateway. eg 3 taxonversionkeys for Coccinella septempunctata have been used.
Ideally the species list should be grouped so that only one name appears with sum of records for each

Thought as much - does this affect the "Number of recorded species" presented on the metadata as well?
Hello Charlie
No, the" Number of recorded species" uses the preferred taxonversionkeys for the taxa and not the original recorded taxonversionkeys
