I'm working on importing various checklist from Checklist bank and other
sources and trying match the names in them with my data, and ran into
this...
Hyalospectra pustularia (Walker, 1861) originally describes as

Just shows that author names with taxon names are needed. However, it is
amazing how few cases like this there are. Mostly, plain (accepted) name
just works. iNaturalist lists don't have author names and sometimes it
is hard to tell what the name actually refers to.
I released the "first rough cut" of this few weeks ago, in there
incorrect match is visible at

There are many other quirks and odd matching all over, but working on
improved release...
