Established Union List species lacking from GRIIS #70

Open timadriaens opened 1 year ago

timadriaens commented 1 year ago

I just wanted to flag that Persicaria wallichii seems to be lacking from the GRIIS checklist in Belgium, whereas it is quite well etablished and has many records on wnm.be. This might be due to the many synonyms (Koenigia polystachya, ) and the mapping of Manual of Alien Plants onto the GRIIS unified.

In manual it is under Rubrivena polystachya which has gbif code 4037343

In waarnemingen.be it is under Persicaria wallichii, gbif code 6391908

@peterdesmet @LienReyserhove can you take a look please and make sure it is added to GRIIS Belgium (preferably under 8848208)?

Rubrivena polystachya is indeed included from the Manual. It is considered a synonym of Koenigia polystachya and got verified in 2021. It got included in taxon.csv as Koenigia polystachya (8848208) in https://github.com/trias-project/unified-checklist/commit/04dd8038c57affecbf719c42bffbf59229c6342a, but it seems that version was never republished to GBIF. It should be included on the next publication. Leaving this issue open to verify.

Note: It is now also included on the waarnemingen.be list, as Persicaria wallichii and I have just verified it as a synonym of Koenigia polystachya.
