Hi, we've recently realised that Favolaschia calocera is not recognised on Indicia, does anyone know the reason for this?

This is marked 'Redundant' in the UKSI, which is why it is not showing up for data entry. There 2023 Checklist of the British and Irish Basidiomycota (available here) states for this taxa "Move to ‘excluded’ list. This species complex has been split into a series of segregate species. Sequenced British material is of F. claudopus (q.v.).", and Flavolaschia claudopus is available for data entry on Indicia.
