Request to obscure co-ordinates of Lion's Mane mushrooms in the UK

Is it possible for a curator or someone to set the co-ordinates of Lion’s Mane Mushroom (also known as Bearded Tooth Fungus here) to mandatory obscured in the UK? They’re under threat here and it’s illegal to pick them in the wild under Schedule 8 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act (they use a non-standard version of the scientific name Hericium erinaceum in the law).

welcome to the forum

please directly flag the taxon on iNat

It looks like those are listed Critically Endangered for UK on iNat, so those will be automatically obscured.

I’m going to close this topic. As @thebeachcomber said, the forum is not for discussing specific taxonomic issues like this. The taxon should be flagged on iNaturalist.
