New Taxon Name Task - Relationship Soft Validation

[mabecabrera]

When exercising with homonyms we created a New Taxon Name: Jivarus viridis by Braun, 2008. This name already existed for another species, Jivarus viridis Ronderos, 1979. So,from the J. viridis Braun, 2008, we create the relationship with J. viridis Ronderos, 1979, primary homonym.

Then we create a new name for the Braun species, Jivarus elegans Pocco, 2015. From Braun`s viridis species we create the relationship with this new name, replaced by Jivarus elegans Pocco, 2015.

And we Edit the relationship of Poccos name with Brauns one. Nomen novum for Jivarus viridis Braun, 2008.

In the Soft Validation for this name, for Relationship appears the message: Jivarus elegans Pocco, 2015 and Jivarus viridis Braun, 2008 are not similar enough to be homonyms.

But as they are not homonyms we wonder what is the Taxon Works program interpretation.

I will check it, looks like a bug. Although, nomen novum relaitionship is not required, Replaced by relationship should resolve the names correctly.
