Wrong taxonomy: ciliate genus Paragonostomum classified as fish

This is related to issue gbif/backbone-feedback#96

The ciliate genus Paragonostomum Foissner, Agatha & Berger, 2002 (GBIF species 4905408) is wrongly classified under the fish family Gonostomatidae.

The source dataset is WoRMS, which classifies it as a ciliate. https://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=863687

The confusion may come from the family assigned in WoRMS, the ciliate family Gonostomatidae Small & Lynn 1985 (https://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=863613), which homonymous to the fish family Gonostomatidae Cocco, 1838 (https://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=125601). As far as I can tell, only the fish family is present in GBIF (taxon 5905).
