Coordinator notes: After a lengthy online research, the AI Summary indicates that Rounded & Laverna Metalmarks are identical in looks or wing patterns with the only major difference being geographic location: Rounded being in the U.S & Mexico and Laverna being in Central & South America, with Costa Rica specifically noted. Thus I'm changing all my CR Rounded IDs to Laverna.
