Taxonomic Swap 145611 (Committed on 2024-08-18)

Ambiguous name.

Russula rosea can refer to three different species, all with different accepted names.

Russula rosea Pers. 1796 (current name: Russula sanguinea)
Russula rosea Quél. 1888 (illegitimate, current name: Russula aurora)
Russula rosea Kill. 1939 (illegitimate, unknown affinities)

Therefore, according the different interpretations by iNaturalist observers, swapping it into Russula sanguinea would lead to numerous misidentifications.
