This can written in the NOTES section on the front page of the SSRF. Repeated entries for the same species can be made if the discovery is materially different. NOTE: Your mammal discovery ‘zone’ extends from the point of departure from the previous SS to the next one including events that occur on the trail between them. Stay focused!
