Based on another discussion, I think one approach to this issue would be to remove individual Pasimachus species from the computer vision (cv) model. That way the system will not suggest those species. I am unclear on both the mechanics of how this might work and how one could request that change to the model be made. I guess it might be a curation request? There is some more discussion here:
