Summary: ~25% of new dataset records have no taxon match
Description: New iDigBio-hosted Symbiota dataset from a new U.S. publisher has something like 3,265 of its 13,263 occurrences with no taxon match, even at kingdom level. Maybe it's by design, but it seems worth mentioning.

The first 3 records I looked into had taxonomic information given at all in their verbatim data:
http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/1324909458/verbatim
http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/1324910023/verbatim
http://demo.gbif.org/occurrence/1324909459

In that case that is not a surprise.
[~jlegind@gbif.org], it might be worth contacting them to see if there is a publishing problem involved
