Topic: Strange behaviour in 'preferred name'
I am confused by the way Recorder sometimes displays the 'preferred name' of some species - probably 99.99% are OK, but some don't appear to be consistent
Example:
Large Skipper Butterfly
in the hierarchical tree of Survey-Event-Sample-Taxon I though the left panel always displayed the 'preferred name', however, this is displayed as Ochlodes faunus if entered as O.faunus or O.venatus subsp.faunus if entered as such
in a Report displaying Recommended Taxon Name - displays Ochlodes sylvanus
It looks as if the left panel now displays the entered taxon name rather than the preferred - is this an intended change, accidental, or me having 'brain-fade!'?
