Common name support in combined/auto #14

Open jpjenk opened 7 years ago

This is considered a VERY low priority. Originally entered on paleobiodb-changelog issue list on 2016-12-23.

Original issue was: Entering 'bivalve', 'ammonite', 'vertebrate' returns an error in classic download generator. The name 'vertebrate' did not match any name in the taxonomy table

Response from Andrew was: Those are common names, try bivalvia, ammonoidea, and vertebrata instead. Michael says he will add common name support eventually.
