OK, one last step that needs to be done after adding a new species with a sighting, is to use the photos from the sighting to "define images" in the field guide pages. I've done it for this one, just captioned them "Teresa" so if you want to add more info like location or short descriptive stuff to the caption, over to one of you. Click on the species name in the field guide or in admin, then on define images.

PS What a lot of gorgeous fungi you are finding Teresa. I better get out for a poke around myself (been away this week).

Jackie I'm only just back from Qld. and trying to catch up on all the alerts on my email. So if the name comes up on that first dropdown box I didn't think I had to check it out further - haven't had time anyway. I've just checked Leratiomyces ceres and there are photos just no description as yet. Won't have time for at least a week to fill any of those in as things are going into full swing here. Still having problems trying to get changes through.
