I frequently monitor several atlases of South American cactaceae. Today I found this one which wasn’t marked but shows a RG observation outside of the atlas range. The observation is incorrectly identified, it’s actually Cumulopuntia leucophaea, but I’ll leave uncorrected for now.
Cheers
I’m pretty sure that feature has been broken for over a year–see https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/atlas-marking-doesnt-persist/7946
In that case do atlases still serve a purpose?
Yes, although I mostly only use them for taxon splits…
They can also be used as a fast way to populate place checklists.
You can still check them manually, although that’s not nearly as useful when you’re trying to curate a large group of species. And as others have pointed out, they’re essential for managing certain taxon splits in a reasonable fashion, and it’s much easier to add to multiple place checklists through the atlas interface.
