<pre wrap=""><!---->
species:Clements:2008=Larus canus
That also allows for other taxonomies to be added at the same time, and for
more general 'species:Clements' and just plain 'species' in cases where the
taxonomy is well-established, or the person doing the tagging isn't an expert.
(I would just use the species name on display at the zoo, and tag it as
'species', unless I were enough of an expert to be more specific.)
