Move Taxa
The Move Taxa operation allows to move one ore more taxa into a taxonomic group (another taxon).
After selecting one or more taxa in the taxonomy browser, contributors have the option to move all selected taxa into a another taxon by selecting the move taxa operation from the taxonomic toolbar. This opens a pop-up asking the contributor to select the taxonomic group into which the selected taxa should be moved (the target).
Important: Selecting the target currently closes this pop-up and the contributor has to select the move operation from the toolbar again, after selecting the target, to actually move taxa. The second pop-up shows a short summary of the planed operation and asks the contributor to confirm the move operation.
