family name included in scientific name field in iDigBio Archive

as reported by @jhammock -

It appears that scientific name from iDigBio include both family and genus/ species name.

For instance this checklist includes Poeciliidae Gambusia holbrooki (see screenshot below). The expected name is Gambusia holbrooki .

After some investigation it appears that the iDigBio archive (retrieved from https://s.idigbio.org/idigbio-static-downloads/idigbio.zip) has concatenated the family taxon name along with the genus/species name in the scientificName field. However, a record associated with the name http://api.idigbio.org/v1/records/009a5d8d-a094-4540-bd5b-7ca0c4599f6b did contain the expected name.

Suspect that the generation of the iDigBio archive performs this (undesired) concatenation.

@godfoder (Alex) or @mjcollin (Matt): Is this expected behavior?
