Tasmania

@Ambrosia10: Could I check where the source for the species being in Tasmania is? I looked at all three in the body of the text and they say that the species is an NZ endemic. --Prosperosity (talk) 21:26, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I see that the original type specimen is from Tasmania, but I don't see any evidence of ongoing presence (and the NZ sources call this an endemic species). Odd! Prosperosity (talk) 21:34, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This may very well be an error on my part! I can't remember where I got that information and am happy for you to remove the mention on Tasmania until we can confirm it actually is present there! Thanks so much for the catch. Species articles are much higher quality when more editors edit them. Ambrosia10 (talk) 21:34, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
