@MattM how would you feel about shifting to C.robertsonii? I can't say that I think there is much support for C.platychilus anymore and we use C.robertsonii on most other platforms.

I am in full support. I would also like to reevaluate how we treat other taxa that may have been split where there isn't a good case for them being separate species.

Right, well I'll talk to Derek and see what he suggests, good to know you are in favour! We will have to catch up about those other taxa you mention.
