**Description of problem** (please provide a set of steps we can use to replicate the issue, and make as many as you need.):  
I uploaded this observation and its location (near Stellenbosch South Africa) from my phone, then was asked to duplicate it since there were more than one species. I did the duplication on the web version from my computer, following the instructions given in the comments. Then somehow the location changed to another continent. I manually changed it back to Stellenbosch via the app after I was alerted by the identifyer.
