Help New contact won't synch to Google Contacts

I recently added two new contacts to my Desire.

One has synced with my Gmail Contacts the other has not.

I cannot see any difference between the contacts on my Desire.

Can someone please tell what could cause one to sync and the other to not and how to edit the errant contact to get it to sync?
 
Thanks for the reply.

However I cannot see, in either case, anything that marks the contact as "Google".

Are we only allowed to mark this up on entry of the contact and cannot edit later?

The Help file does not mention later editing of "Contact Account"; only in "Adding new contact"

So maybe I will have to delete the errant contact and re-enter?
