Dataset in TW Sandcatstle: https://sandcastle.taxonworks.org/tasks/nomenclature/browse?id=32405&taxon_name_id=32405

• [ ] Reference: title of a paper is missing. Minor issue. Now: Aboilus fasciatus Martynov, 1925 Published in: Martynov. Bulletin de l'Académie des sciences de Russie. 233-46, 569-98, 753-62;19;article (1925).

Was in ac19: Author: Martynov Year: 1925 Title: [missing data] To the knowledge of fossil insects from Jurassic beds in Turkestan, Part 2 Source: Bulletin de l'Académie des sciences de Russie (Bull. Acad. Sci. USSR) 19: 233-46, 569-98, 753-62

• [ ] Reference: it might be messed volume and pages(?). Volume "19" placed after pages in a new export.

[yroskov]

• [ ] Is "extinct" flag missing in a new export? For example, genus †Aboilus and all its 20 spp marked as extinct in ac19, but not here https://data.catalogue.life/dataset/2211/classification?taxonKey=32389

[gdower]

• [x] The Sinuijus genus and Sinuijus baektoensis are missing in the CoLDP export:

[yroskov]

• [ ] Subspecies Cyphoderris monstrosa monstrosa Uhler, 1864 repeated twice:

• [ ] On species page, the name Cyphoderris monstrosa monstrosa Uhler, 1864 repeated as a synonym to itself and incorrectly marked as a chresonym

https://data.catalogue.life/dataset/2211/taxon/123618

[yroskov]

• [ ] Incorrect names in synonymy: binomial with missing genus name = [GENUS NOT SPECIFIED] obscura accepted name repeated among synonyms as a "chrysonym" ≡ Prophalangopsis obscura (Walker, 1869) (chresonym)

https://data.catalogue.life/dataset/2211/taxon/32257

[gdower]

It's because there are two OTUs for Cyphoderris monstrosa monstrosa, which is likely a mistake:

[gdower]

We also added two other test exports:

Family Gryllotalpidae: https://data.catalogue.life/dataset/2212/classification Family Myrmecophilidae: https://data.catalogue.life/dataset/2213/classification

Family Gryllotalpidae has a lot of species that have no parentID, possibly because they are attached to 2 parent OTUs, which might be a mistake in the data or a bug with the Species Files -> TaxonWorks importer.

Additional families for tests: TW dev (Gryllotalpidae) at https://data.catalogue.life/dataset/2212/classification TW dev (Myrmecophilidae) at https://data.catalogue.life/dataset/2213/classification

[yroskov]

• [ ] Duplicated species in the classification Example: Bothriophylax richteri

Example: Myrmecophilus (Myrmecophilus) acervorum (Panzer, 1799)

Myrmecophilus (Myrmecophilus) hirticaudus Fischer von Waldheim, 1846

[gdower]

There's 2 OTUs for Bothriophylax richteri:

https://sandcastle.taxonworks.org/tasks/otus/browse?taxon_name_id=31175

I'm getting that pop-up by clicking on Bothriophylax richteri on the OTU tab of this page:

https://sandcastle.taxonworks.org/tasks/otus/browse?taxon_name_id=31171

Same exact issue with Myrmecophilus (Myrmecophilus) acervorum and Myrmecophilus (Myrmecophilus) hirticaudus except there are 3 and 6 OTUs, respectively.

[yroskov]

• [ ] Missing epithets in synonymy Example: Myrmecophilus (Myrmecophilus) hirticaudus https://data.catalogue.life/dataset/2213/taxon/122430

[yroskov]

Dataset in family Gryllotalpidae

• [ ] Species and subspecies in the Tree root - why? After discussion with Geoff: two OTUs? confusion with parent? https://data.catalogue.life/dataset/2212/classification?taxonKey=30828

[yroskov]

• [ ] Incorrectly assigned flag "Basionym" to the name Gryllotalpella macilenta (Saussure, 1874). Basionym itself, Gryllotalpa macilenta Saussure, 1874, is missing (basionym is present in TW: https://sandcastle.taxonworks.org/tasks/nomenclature/browse?taxon_name_id=31019)

https://data.catalogue.life/dataset/2212/taxon/31001

• [ ] Missing basionym among CoL+ synonyms is a common bug in an export

[yroskov]

• [ ] Very strange presentation of "species aggregates": species epithet is missing. As for me, it is unnamed OTUs. Well, it looks, TW superspecies were somehow re-named as "agg." and stripped off epithets. It is incorrect. Something very much wrong with "agg." and "superspecies".

Re Gryllotalpella macilenta. There are misspellings involved, does this change view?

[yroskov]

@gdower Please skip superspecies in CoLDP export, if it may help to simplify a task.

[mdoering]

Species and subspecies in the Tree root

The verbatim data shows there is no parentID given for those species:

File Taxon.csv, line 58
col:ID = 30943
col:nameID = 30962

[gdower]

Yeah, it's probably caused by 2 OTUs, as shown above. One of the OTUs doesn't have a parent because of the superspecies doesn't get exported.

@gdower Sinuijus is confirmed data error, not code, and can be ticked off this report.
