The World Odonata List - Potential family synonyms request #806

Open camiplata opened 2 weeks ago

Describe the problem:

We found several occurrences and databases using a different authorship: Libellulidae Rambur, 1842 probably this is a synonym for the valid Libellulidae Leach, 1815, would it be possible to ask the authors of the GSD if it would be possible to add Libellulidae Rambur, 1842 as a synonym (if it is) to improve usage and matching of the list and COL?

You can always add the synonym to the patch list...

It is an assumption on my side, I don't have a reference to back me up.
