A question from Amber Saundry at UBC:
For the DwC term scientificNameAuthorship – this should be the authorship of 
the lowest rank.  However, what about when there is an subspecies/variety/forma 
autonym (ie: Salix brachycarpa Nutt. subsp. brachycarpa)?  Should this field 
reflect the species authorship (Nutt.), or be blank, as the subspecies level 
has no authorship?

What would you suggest?
