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.

• Select a proposal ([B.1] - Taxonomy-Page#release-taxonomy) or
• Create a new proposal (B.3 Taxonomy-Page#candidate-taxonomy).

• Select one or more taxa to be moved

• From the Taxonomic Operations toolbar select the Move operation (B4 - Taxonomy-Page#proposal-taxonomy).

• Select the target taxon into which to move the selected taxa.

• Again, select the Move operation.

• Click on Move Tax to actually move the selected taxa to the selected parent.
