The duff authorship in NZOR is a product of misinterpreting the NZOR data. See https://github.com/AtlasOfLivingAustralia/name-preprocessing/issues/9

Lepus has one known species in Australia, Lepus capensis orientalis (using AFD as the authority). The ALA has two species, L. c. orientalis (derived from AFD) and L. europaeus orientalis (a synonym of L. capensis) (derived from NZOR). Unfortunately the species page descriptions are also incorrect. The description for L. e. orientalis is the correct description for Australia. The species page for L. c. orientalis appears to be using the EoL page for L. c. arabica.
