[Taxacom] ZooBank website

[Torbjørn Ekrem]

I agree, great tool.
It seems, however, that several taxa of my favorite group (Diptera: 
Chironomidae) have incorrect authors and dates, and in some cases the 
authors names are even missing. Coincidence or children's disease? It 
would be interesting to hear if you have the same experience with other 
taxonomic groups.
