Non-native land flatworms

Non-native land flatworms have been accidentally introduced to the UK in imported pot plants and newly arrived species continue to be discovered. Once introduced these flatworms can reproduce rapidly, cannot be eradicated, and pose a risk to native soil invertebrates such as earthworms by feeding on them.

Scientists have found that in some areas, non-native flatworms can reduce local earthworm populations by 20% – this could have a huge impact on soil health and agriculture, as well as our native soil wildlife.

By adding your findings to this survey, you will help us to better understand how non-native flatworms are spreading around the UK, and you may alert us to a newly arrived species.

Verifying BirdTrack records in iRecord

Since February 2022 we have been importing UK records of species other than birds from BirdTrack into iRecord for verification (and ultimately we intend to send bird records on iRecord to BirdTrack for verification). Initially the largest sets of records will be for mammals and dragonflies/damselflies, with smaller sets of records for butterflies, amphibians, reptiles and orchids. 

For more information, and for guidance on how BirdTrack deals with locations and coordinates, please see:

Templates for record comments

This feature added in April 2023 allows verifiers to save one or many templates containing text, e.g. to  provide a ‘signature’ that contains the verifier name and a link to their recording scheme; or a frequently used comment about a species, etc. Once saved the templates can be re-used whenever needed. 

You don’t have to use the templates at all! You can just add your comment in the usual way. The templates provide extra options for quickly calling up comment text that you have previously saved, and there are two different uses:

Photo verification page

This new page is designed to make it easier for verifiers to review records that have photos  attached. Photo records will still be shown on the main verification page as well, so verifiers  can choose whether to do all their verification on the current page, or try the new one for  the records with photos.
