  1. I'm not sure how much this matters, but in the US, this species is referred to as Stereum complicatum, which I think is synonymous to Stereum rameale. Posted 7 years ago
    1. Thanks. This can matter. A species' binomial name is the only thing making a species record absolutely unique. The system does not know when two synonyms really are the same species conceptually. Such a problem would surface if people search the identification dialog with the alternative name. There is a facility for me to map two names to each other, effectively rerouting a search term, so I've done that for the term you suggested. It will only work though if they type exactly that, so without any misspellings :) Posted 7 years ago
