it would be good to have support for this in the software.
in practice, when you add an infraspecific taxon to a species, the species gets an automatic authonym and this autonym becomes the accepted name for the taxon. there is no extra author for it, as there is no publication other than the original species publication.
This is not the right way to do it. You can have a pool of accessions pointing to it and you do not know if there are accessions in between that are the new infraspecific taxon. Also when in a new identification when you can not decide which infraspecific taxon it is, you just identify it on species level.
when you remove the last infraspecific taxon at a given rank from a species, its automatic autonym at that rank should be removed, or become a transparent synonym to the species. I can imagine cases like knowing of the existence of infraspecific taxa for a species, but not having them in the collection, so that you would want to add the autonym manually, and that it stays in the database even in absence of siblings at the same rank.
