Sanctioning authors not parsed #47

Closed dimus closed 3 years ago

Fungal names often have a sanctioning author (Fr. or Pers.) following a colon after the basionym or combination authorship. This is currently unparsed.

Example: Boletus versicolor L. : Fr. ICNfap Article 50: http://www.iapt-taxon.org/nomen/main.php?page=r50E&emph=sanctioned https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanctioned_name

If we do not know that a name is a Fungi name, this would create an ambiguity with practices for providing information about chresonyms.

I think it should be done by another tool bioclassifier? That is able to reason about names based on extended knowledge about each of them (tool that is connected to a database)

from D. Patterson:

Chresonym

A reference to the use of a name. The sperm whale Physeter catodon was first formally described by Linnaeus in the 1758 edition of Systema Naturae, so the correct name with authority information is Physeter catodon Linnaeus, 1758. Physeter catodon: Harmer, 1928 on the other hand refers to the use of the name by Harmer. Chresonyms may be similar in appearance to the scientific name plus authority (the example above may be given as Physeter catodon Harmer, 1928). Chresonyms may be distinguished by the presence of an additional element of punctuation. A chresonym may simply regfer to a usage, or may be used to indzicate the taxonomic concept that occurred in the source. In some taxonomic areas, it is routine to include chresonyms among the synonymy lists. This is wrong as the chresonym is NOT based on a nomenclatural act.
