Thank you as always for making the magic happen.

If that were true, there would not be a P. m. subsp. runyonii, but there apparently is (according the CoL). And without a second subspecies, there would be no reason for a type subspecies. A bunch of contradictions there. So their synonymy apparently could use some fine tuning.
I see that we now have a P. macromeris entry without any associated data. I will fill that out with what was in the C. macromeris entry before. I think our synonyms could use some reworking. Unless I am confused, and it's happened before, the CoL is wrong about this detail (or at least it stands in contradiction to the taxa they recognize). So here in the database we should point the synonyms of C. macromeris (species and subspecies) directly onto P. macromeris:
C. macromeris = P. macromeris
C. macromeris subsp. macromeris = P. macromeris subsp. macromeris
C. macromeris subsp. runyonii = P. macromeris subsp. runyonii
I am not going to propose any changes, will leave the decision and action up to higher powers. If I am right, I think all the images under P. macromeris subsp. macromeris probably belong under the species entry (not sure where they were before, but I think most or all were in the species entry before).
Appreciate you taking a second look at this.
