taxon name: The name of a taxon.

Notes: In general this is a scientific name following the convention of the Codes ruling nomenclature (eg International Code for Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN), but it can also be a vernacular name as used in field guides. Scientific names are latinized bi- or trinomen at species and infraspecific level, and latinized names at higher taxonomic levels. Names are normalized and the combination of the name can be inferred from the < tp:taxon-name-part>, but they can additionally be given as a name string. External linking to reference databases such as Zoobank is made with the <object-id> element.
