On what grounds was this change made. This is a good variety and easily identified in the field. It has a different ecology to the typical variety, as it colonizes and spreads far more readily than the typical form.
Where is the justification for the swap?

The draft had sat for quite a while without comment but I should have thought to tag you in @tonyrebelo - my apologies.

Blindly following POWO and wasting lots of good data is not to be recommended. I usually get POWO updated. IT IS FAR FROM PERFECT.

And in this case does not follow the latest revisions that I know of.

So this is a backward step, and will take a huge effort to reverse!!!
Please consult before making unrequested changes. Had you publicized this, I would have called for an exception to be made.

Sorry: our postings crossed. I will consult locally and see if reversing this is worth the effort.

Agreed on the imperfections of POWO. Again my apologies. A way of automatically alerting people with a likely interest needs to be built in, I think.
Have you flagged to have it reversed?

No: I will ask around first. If there is no demand I will just ignore it.
