we have implemented sth for checklist datasets only on checklistbank. You can search for "rowType" class terms, e.g. the dwc MeasurementOrFact extension: https://www.checklistbank.org/dataset?rowType=dwc%3AMeasurementOrFact https://www.checklistbank.org/dataset?rowType=bib%3ABibTeX Maybe we can implement the same...

Yes, we don't maintain the species API and never adapted to changing standards

The data is also indexed in checklistbank, but that distribution definition also does not include these or similar terms. You can access the information as verbatim records though: https://www.checklistbank.org/dataset/30842/verbatim?term=dwc:degreeOfEstablishment https://api.checklistbank.org/dataset/30842/verbatim?term=dwc:degreeOfEstablishment...

I have created an issue to support the entire dwc extension in checklistbank: https://github.com/CatalogueOfLife/coldp/issues/81 It is not trivial to embrace different standards for the same thing. Maybe it might be...

I believe ChecklistBanks model follows +/- the same ideas Roger has explained for Rhakis. Synonyms are largely just names linked to an accepted name without further properties, with the rare...

Matching is always a very delicate balancing act. In this case the species `Brunella grandiflora` is just one character off and matches quite well. It is a result that I...

`IMPLICIT NAMES` are names that exist in the backbone because another accepted name exists that implicitly requires the existance of that name. E.g. a species implicitly requires the genus to...

you can add the query parameter `verbose=true` to get more insight into what happens: https://api.gbif.org/v1/species/match?name=Dryopteris%20borreri%20Newman&verbose=true You now see the list of considered potential matches as _alternatives_. This list contains `Dryopteris...
