fungee Green Russula (Russula virescens)

two thirds of the observations of this are in E. N. A. where this doesn't exist. Those should just be moved to Russula unless you are able to separate R. parvovirescens from crustosa, modesta, aeruginea, etc., etc.

can't be resolved without manual labor

Here is the link I'm going to use for this one and the simple statement I have so far. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/identify?taxon_id=125720&place_id=19,37,18,36,12,44,13,7590,6883,13336,7587,6853,9116,17,41,2,47,49,8,48,51,42,4,97454,39,33,7,31,29,20,32,35,24,38,28,25,36,19,26,45,30,43,23,21,27&per_page=200 "Two-thirds of the observations of this mushroom are in E. N. A. where this doesn't exist. Those should probably just be moved to Russula unless you are able to separate R. parvovirescens from crustosa, modesta, aeruginea, variata, etc. This is part of the push described here https://www.inaturalist.org/journal/fungee/46596-new-ai-computer-vision-first-for-android to fix the Computer Vision Machine Learning that only suggest things that look like species that are named on here. If we eliminate the species named from geographically segregate species we might get more local suggestions on here at least."

@nschwab Not sure how to deal with this

Posted by radbackedsalamander over 1 year ago

@radbackedsalamander I believe the only solution is to re-identify all these records. I know that there are a lot of them but it's the way I saw it dealt with in the past. I recently implemented infrageneric classification so it might be useful to know the following:
Russula virescens complex corresponds to Russula subsect. Virescentinae
Russula modesta corresponds to subsect. Modestinae
Russula aeruginea corresponds to subsect. Griseinae
Russula variata corresponds to subsect. Cyanoxanthinae

All of these are placed in subgenus Heterophyllidia which can be used if it can't be identified further.

It has now been fixed. I re-identified all the observations for the area @fungee showd.

👍

Posted by radbackedsalamander over 1 year ago

Now there are many false identification in North America to correct...

Posted by nschwab over 1 year ago

@nschwab how did you fix all the IDs so fast? Is there a way to "blanket ID" a taxon or was it just manually?

Posted by radbackedsalamander over 1 year ago

@radbackedsalamander You can press Ctrl + Left Click to open the observation in a new tab when clicking on the name on the identifications page. Then you can open multiple of them and go quickly through them.

ah ty.

Posted by radbackedsalamander over 1 year ago

I have been keeping up with it fairly often, but I am super thankful for anyone's help. I still am not sure why they cannot be all be stopped from being suggested in the first place since they aren't here. Atlas'ed out or what have you.

Posted by fungee over 1 year ago

@fungee I'm currently working on Russula aeruginea already removed over half of MA's observations and almost every north american RG observation

Posted by radbackedsalamander over 1 year ago

it's tedious but possible

Posted by radbackedsalamander over 1 year ago

Awesome!

Posted by fungee over 1 year ago

@fungee If I understand well, atlases can work that way.

Posted by nschwab over 1 year ago

Clarification; is E. N. A = Eastern North America?

I am asking since if that is the case, then quite a few records have to be re-identified

Posted by plantman4 about 1 year ago

Yeah, it's really super hard to keep on top of this as the AI continues to suggest this based on who knows what.

Posted by fungee about 1 year ago

@fungee It would be nice to have a feature to "block CV suggestions" when they're poisoned with bad IDs until it's fixed.

Posted by nschwab about 1 year ago

That would work well, at least block the to species IDs.
