INaturalist agrees with Waltraud. I must have misunderstood Ciaran. Sorry

CarbonAI needs some coaching on this as it is nothing like Stypandra glauca.

It wasn’t CarbonAI it was me mishearing Ciaran. I looked up Stypandra and yes, it’s nothing like a nodding blue lily!

There is no doubt Styphelia; one of the species we recorded when we started CNM recording rare plants on Mt Majura .
lbradly and CarbonAT both proposed Stypandra glauca. Perhaps because the Genus name starts with "Styp..." for both of the species?

I'm pretty sure the AI suggested Stypandra as it can only make suggestions within the category that the sighting is placed within (i.e. lillies in this case). CarbonAI can't look at a sighting someone has called a lilly and tell you that it is say an orchid, instead it will look for the most likely option in the given category, which is what has happened here.

Is CarbonAI a robot / Artificial Intelligence? I must have missed something :-)

Yep CarbonAI is our robot moderator.
