Observation Field Gyne(s) Present Not Available for Downloading - Ants

Please fill out the following sections to the best of your ability, it will help us investigate bugs if we have this information at the outset. Screenshots are especially helpful, so please provide those if you can.

Browser, if a website issue (Firefox, Chrome, etc) : Chrome

Description of problem (please provide a set of steps we can use to replicate the issue, and make as many as you need.):

Step 1: Search any ant genera. I tried several.

Step 2: Try to export the data for the search. I recommend a smaller genus like Melophorus (Furnace Ants) or Meranoplus (Shield Ants)

Step 3: The observation field is blank. Gyne(s) Present is not presented as an option to download.

You need to have added an observation field to an observation for it to be shown as an option on the download page for you. Have you added that field to any observations?

Many of the observations have the data in that field, but not all of them. Would that prevent it from being able to be show for the search?

You yourself need to have added the field to at least one observation for it to appear on the export page.
