Georeferencing Remarks Georeference needs verification/refinement; coordinates provided by donor
Georeferencing Annotation
Has not been Georeferenced because This record, being part of the track 3 import, is not formally georeferenced by FoTX staff at this time. However, to allow mapping and visualization of this record, locality information has been provisionally accepted if provided by the donor or if location text could be matched to previously georeferenced records by FoTX team or donor data. For many records spatial error is either accepted from the donor (when provided) or derived based on coordinate precision.

The record needs to be re-georeferenced as per comment received from collector Dave Neely: 'We made three collections on the 17th. I retained 4 Gambusia from the Alamito Creek site in 95% EtOH, which has a lat/long that's nearly identical to the EMBL record with one major difference: 29.5210 -104.2919 (vs. 30.52 -104.29). My guess is whoever entered the data whiffed the latitude and only entered to two decimal places...'
