I've put it down as the 'old name' Polyporus arcularius - name needs to be updated to Lentinus arcularius.

So will one of you change it then? Click on notepad icon in admin, change name, then add Polyporus arcularius as a synonym (2 stage process, so after the name change, click again on the notepad icon, now for Lentinus arcularius, and add the synonym). Jackie :-)

Teresa can you do this please as all the changes I've tried to put through don't happen!! I sent Fiona a step by step process I was taking as I had the same problem with Budawang and she said I was following the correct proceedure. I just have to try and clear the alerts in my in box and at the same time dealing with the material I've been collecting here so will get back to it next week when I will try and make time. Unfortunately collected specimens don't wait to be processed and if I don't collect when they are around I'll have to wait till next year to collect and process the data.
