staff comment November 5, 2011
ID Status: Not flagged for specimen examination. By default we accept donor specimen determinations (after synonymization to our taxonomy). If georeferenced to TX this record has been considered in spatial context with other occurences of this species and accepted as correct.
ID Comments: NA
Not Georeferenced Because: Internal conflict since Nueces is not on the Leona River and is not in Uvalde County.
