Placeholder

In TCS Vernacular Names are treated as relationships between Taxon Concepts, but it is not quite clear how. In the meeting of 2018-12-04 it was suggested that vernacularName could be a property on a TaxonomicName object, but after some more discussion it was agreed that they are better treated as TaxonomicNames in their own right. We need to explore what the options are with real-life examples.

We discussed vernacular names in the teleconference of 24 September.
