Hi,

Though it is not API issue per se, I found misinterpreted names such as
http://api.gbif.org/v1/species/114606608
where species epithet is interpreted as authority of the name.
I suspect that the crawler code assumes second or later word starting with
a capital letter as authority.  I tried verbatim also but it is not successful.

Regerds,
James
