What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. open and occurrence page (e.g. http://data.gbif.org/occurrences/144067226/)
2. click on "View: View information for Opaepele loihi"
3. Observe that the taxon page opening is not for the nub concept, but also for
the data resource treatment: from the species page
http://data.gbif.org/species/53538551, click on "names and classification" to
the the source dataset
4. open the corresponding web service response:
http://data.gbif.org/ws/rest/occurrence/get/144067226. See that the taxon page
URL (and other links) gives http://data.gbif.org/species/53538551
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The "view information" link should lead to the nub taxon page, as opposed to the neighbouring "View (...) classification according to (...)" which gives the source treatment. Currently, both lead to the same source treatment page. The corresponding web service request (http://data.gbif.org/ws/rest/occurrence/get/144067226) also should give the nub taxon (http://data.gbif.org/species/2223094/), not the taxon concept of the source dataset.

".@GBIF Occurrence http://data.gbif.org/occurrences/144067226/ … appears on
page http://data.gbif.org/species/2223094/ … but linked to
http://data.gbif.org/species/53538551 … (which has no occurrences!?)"
additional detail:
"I went from http://data.gbif.org/species/2223094/ to the occurrences for this
species from NMNH Invertebrate Zoology Collections http://bit.ly/ZkIbs8. If I
click on an occurrence http://data.gbif.org/occurrences/144067226/ then all
taxonomic links are to the NMNH classification (but this isn't stated).
For example, the row labelled "GBIF classification" is not the nub
classification but the "b-names". At the top it says "View information for
Opaepele loihi" which is a link to the NMNH classification
http://data.gbif.org/species/53538551 not the nub classification. Indeed
there's no link to the nub classification from the occurrence page.
If I access the occurrence using the web service
http://data.gbif.org/ws/rest/occurrence/get/144067226 I also get the
http://data.gbif.org/species/53538551 taxon, not the nub taxon.
I understand the reason for storing the provider classification, but the portal
doesn't make it clear which is which, and they seem disconnected. If I'm
looking at an occurrence, either on the portal of via the web services, I'd
expect to see a link to the nub classification somewhere, but I don't."
