Comments
Sounds as though this field is a little more specific, than "associated observation" as it is specifying the type of association, rather than an undefined one. It also specifies "iNaturalist" URL, so maybe NatureWatchNZ URLs would be confusing. So probably good to keep it seperate.
I also note that the new observation page doesn't setup observation fields a clickable hyperlinks, which diminishes the utility of these fields (whereas a hyperlink in comments and descriptions still works).
This is a great idea for a field.
It's very similar in function to "Associated observation", although that field doesn't specify that the associated species needs to be a host or "community dominate" (which I've quoted because that's not a phrase I've heard down here in New Zealand). For example, some people have used "Associated observation" to include external links to their eBird lists.
Still, I wonder if these should be one field.
Any thoughts, @tony_wills?
