cannot get to genus page in Advanced Search

I'm not sure how this can be fixed, but when typing "phidippus" (a genus of jumping spiders) into Advanced Search, only a few specific taxons appear in the pull-down menu. It must have something to do with all the subcategories and groups other than simple genus/species but I would think that the main genus page would still appear as an option.

We just tried it and it seemed to work fine
There are a large number of options and they are placed alphabetically, so you have to scroll down quite a ways, but eventually you should see the genus Phidippus choice.
The other option is to go to the Phidippus page and look at the url. You will see that Phidippus is at node 1993. You can just type in the number to get there.

 
Thank you.
I'm embarrassed that I didn't notice the new scroll bar on the side of the menu (used to be I had to scroll the whole page). Change of browsers - different behavior... Thanks for your patience.
