Package: taxastand 2.0.0

taxastand: Taxonomic Name Standardization

Standardizes taxonomic names by matching species names to entries in a user-supplied reference taxonomy, then resolving synonyms to their accepted names. Fuzzy matching on parsed name components (genus, epithet, author, infraspecific rank, etc.) allows for orthographic differences between the query and reference names. This facilitates reproducible joining of datasets that use different taxonomic synonyms for the same species.
