Thanks Liam. Yes @DonFletcher it is a big shame we've lost the map feature when looking at taxa level :(

@DonFletcher, it worked when I edited it at a global level. Should now display as Canis lupus dingo?

Hi Helen
It is using Canis lupus, so not wrong. I just went in to edit the taxonomy (including that I was going to add the indigenous common name Waragul) but it did not let me edit. Aaaaarrrrggghhh!!! As ever the case there is no courtesy information or clue why - it could be that editing has been disabled for everyone (like our ability to see the map and the ability to download data) or it could be that I can no longer edit, or it could be that the dingo species can not be edited because it is controversial. It is a whole rigmarole fto find out and then i probably cant get a change anyway. The mapless Nature Mapper frustrates me too much. Things so rarely work how it says on the packet. And I just dont have that much time to suffer the frustration and blood pressure.
