How do I...? and other questions

The ant species Strumigenys perplexa has recently been recorded at several outdoor locatons on the island of Guernsey. It is likely that it will be found on the mainland soon. At present records for this species cannot be made on iRecord because the species name Strumigenys perplexa is not yet available. How do I get this species added so that records can be entered?

I am trying to amend record 4309525. When I try to edit the record the system takes me to the record 4309526. How can this happen?

I entered my first record in iRecord yesterday, as a casual record without a user account. I have now created an account. Is there any way to 'claim' my record so it appears on my account?

I used my phone to do a 'general survey' around my home.

The ant species Hypoponera eduardi (Forel, 1894) is not yet on iRecord. It has recently been recorded from both the Channel Isles, the Isle of Wight and London but the records cannot be added to iRecord because the species is not yet listed. How can it be added?

If I draw a polygon around an area, at what level of precision does the system search for data? Background - people load data to our activity at varying levels of accuracy of OS grid reference. I drew a polygon around a particular area to search for data and it missed some of it which had been recorded as only 4 fig grid ref. The polygon lies within the 1 km square of that grid ref. So do polygons only pick up data for which the lower left hand corner of the grid ref lies within the polygon? or how do they work?

I have had a problem in importing a spreadsheet into i record this year. Has anything changed.  It is something to do with import id do you now have to name the spreadsheet in a certain way. It was as a csv will in the usual format for DRN dragonfly imports. I see that other types of file are now accepted

Hi

Can I add photos to records that I've previously submitted?

Many thanks

Hi,

Obviously, I realise now I should have added an activity right at the beginning.

How do I add previously entered records to an activity?

I created an iRecord account in error - I was hoping to identify a species of beetle from my garden. I realized this is not the right place, how do I delete the account?
