Some strange things coming from Fishbase to backbone #5492

Open DimEvil opened 1 month ago

DimEvil commented 1 month ago

Apparently some fish dishes are categorized or interpreted as synonyms from Fishbase. (Also from EUNIS database, who probably used fishbase).

As a result I have, by using the GBIF taxonomic backbone some Fish dishes in my Flemish Living Atlas.

Fishbase should be updated or remapped, assessed for the taxonomic backbone. they have a column for fish coocking treatment (=market ? )

Here is the source (probably): https://fishbase.se/glossary/Glossary.php?q=Filetti+di+salmone+svedesi&language=english&sc=is

It looks like we several dishes names as vernacular names both in the Catalogue of Life and EUNIS. I think we need to update the checklists at the source.

Oh also in de COL? I think the source of this is Fishbase

It looks like you're right about the market names:

https://fishbase.de/ComNames/CommonNamesList.php?ID=236&GenusName=Salmo&SpeciesName=salar&StockCode=250 https://fishbase.de/ComNames/CommonNamesList.php?ID=236&GenusName=Salmo&SpeciesName=salar&StockCode=250&market=y

I will contact Catalogue of Life and EUNIS and ask them to not include market names in their checklists.
