We have just done an import of over 450K pictures from one biodiversity database to another, using GBIF as a reference to update the taxonomy. Because of this error, several hundred records have been incorrectly tagged as Loweia tityrus. Please, solve this problem ASAP. This bug was reported more than a year ago.

Thanks @somms for the reminder, I am sorry I dropped the ball on this.

I am not entirely sure what happened here but it looks like:

I am not sure if the error is with TAXREF (meaning that Brintesia circe should not be a synonym of Papilio circe Fabricius, 1775) or with the Global Lepidoptera Index (Papilio circe (Denis & Schiffermüller) 1776 should not be a synonym of Loweia tityrus (Poda, 1761)).

I will start by contacting the Catalogue of Life, if they added Brintesia circe in their checklist, I don't think we would have this issue.
