Incorrect taxon matching for SAM records (ignoring higher taxa hint from collectory) #722

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Alexis identified some records being matched to non-animal higher taxa despite 
the collectory specifying animalia as the higher taxon hint for this collection.

which appear to be matching to genus via a fuzzy match despite having a family 
specified which appears to have been ignored.

Looking at the collection page: 
http://collections.ala.org.au/collection/show/125

I see that the "taxonomic range" has animalia but the "taxonomic hint" section 
only includes:

class = reptilia
class = amphibia

Does "kingdom = animalia" need to be included here for the names matching 
perhaps?
