If this is Kickxia spuria as it appears, have we reverted to calling it Linaria, as entered on H@H?

It's a mistake. You're right to list it as Kickxia.

I plan to merge the herb@home taxon database with the much more up-to-date list from the BSBI Distribution Database (DDb), which will hopefully resolve many of problems with sheets listed under non-accepted names.

Merging has been delayed many times because the list wasn't ready, but the DDb is probably now at a stage when merging would be productive.

regards,

Tom
