Hi @kitty12,
It seems surprising that Coriaria sarmentosa is the same species as C. ruscifolia. Can you please direct us to a published reference for this (beyond POWO, or the book by Florence on French Polynesia).
Thanks, Leon & @chrise

The Florence reference appears to be the most recent, but of course that doesn't make it canon. However, if you wish to bring additional sources to POWO's attention and ask for a revision of their taxonomy, you are welcome to do so, and we will no doubt slavishly follow their future taxonomic guidance: bi@kew.org. Please do flag the taxon to get a conversation going about this - the swap was sitting without comment for over a month and a half, but maybe you will have better luck than I did.

Thanks @kitty12. I'll track down the Florence reference before doing anything else.
