@reiner Sorry, my bad! It was a side effect of having iNat.nz (based on NZOR) as distinct from iNat.org! It can't be undone, but it appears to still affect only 1 Australian obs. If you agree with the right ID, you should be able to get it back to the right species: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/2004833
No worries - it actually affected about 30 obs but some of us have already gone through and changed them back (but there are currently some hanging at the genus level until most of the ID'ers restore theirs). I've also set regional common names to make it harder to confuse these across the Tasman.
Its cold and raining today in Melbourne - I've got nothing better to do :)
Some interesting taxonomic notes here: http://nzpcn.org.nz/flora_details.aspx?ID=1780
"Paul Kores [..] treats Cyrtostylis as a synonym of Acianthus" but another "study ... has shown that Cyrtostylis is not allied to Acianthus but rather ... Corybas". I hope the soon-to-be published paper addresses Paul Kores's views. But the gist is it seems like we might be calling all these Corybas soon! (maybe)
The NZPCN page was last updated 3 Dec 2014, so I'm not sure what has happened with the "in press" article, unless it is this paywalled book chapter (which I can't seem to access): https://oxfordindex.oup.com/view/10.7208/chicago/9780226173641.003.0005
Didn't realize it was that old - didn't seem to have an effect on names.
@stephen_thorpe I don't think this should have applied to Australian observations. I have made Cyrtostylis reniformis active again but not sure what the best way is to get the ID's back.
[And looking at the dates you added it today but committed it yesterday!. :) ]
