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: click the above links

Step 2: see how Lentinus arcularis shows up in search for the genus Polyporus and not in search for Lentinus

Not sure what the issue is, but L. arcularius still shows up as being in Polyporus despite the scientific name being Lentinus:

Looks like there were taxon swaps from Polyporus to Lentinus back in 2020. Maybe @jameskm has some insight.

I made a flag on the taxon page. I assume it’s an easy fix! BTW James has not been active on iNat since 2021. Not sure where he went!

Sounds like an indexing issue. Resaving the taxa may fix this.
