Yes, planted. Didn't know it was a non-local native classified as a weed in parts of Victoria. We'll have to replace it.

This rust fungus seems well established in Australia so unsure whether this is one that ACT Forestry want to know about. @ACTBiosecurity

Hi Moderators - another important thing.

If you find that sightings are coming in from wildlife insights using particular species names that don't match the NatureMapr taxonomy, you can create a new synonym against the species on NatureMapr so that matching will be improved next time the same species comes in from wildlife insights.

And of course sorry if I'm telling anyone to suck eggs here and you know the features better than I do.

Example: Deers were coming in as Rusa unicolor, which is Cervus unicolor on NatureMapr. So someone added Rusa unicolor as a synonym and now they are matching first go. Cervus unicolor
