Is this only in psql?

If so I would suspect the table formatting code.

What happens if you do \x and then look at the records?


   Example:

    2220 | STV     | 2012-07-12 | Nematoda |             |              |
          |          | Omnivore      |    50 |          |
StarvationCrk+| Owyhee
         |         |            |          |             |              |
          |          |               |       |          |               |
    2701 | STV-10  | 2013-07-10 | Nematoda |             |              |
          |          | Omnivore      |    36 |          | StarvationCrk
| Owyhee

   I'd appreciate learning where that '+' originates and how to get rid of
it. A query to count the rows with the appendage returns zero:

select count(*) from benthos where stream = 'StarvationCrk';
  count -------
    204

select count(*) from benthos where stream = 'StarvationCrk+';
  count -------
      0

TIA,

Rich
