Following on from that https://lists-test.ala.org.au/speciesListItem/list/dr21996?max=10 using a technique Simon and Cam have developed.

There are three non-matches. One is a misspelling (Eucalytpus pleurocarpa) the other two are homonyms

https://namematching-ws.ala.org.au/api/search?q=Fulvia https://namematching-ws.ala.org.au/api/search?q=Endoxyla

and the namematching system is being a pig since there’s enough information to disambiguate them

https://namematching-ws.ala.org.au/api/searchByClassification?scientificName=Endoxyla&kingdom=Animalia&family=Cossidae works but https://namematching-ws.ala.org.au/api/searchByClassification?scientificName=Fulvia&kingdom=Animalia&phylum=Mollusca&family=CARDIIDAE is still a mess.
