Description: One user told me he was trying to search occurences of this taxon, which in GBIF has taxon_key=3813172
Spergularia australis (Samp.) J.A.Ratter

But the GBIF ScientificName filter offers 3 identical choices without author, like this:
Spergularia australis

And no matter which one I try, I can only arrive to this search:
http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?TAXON_KEY=7901743
... which has only one record with this name:
Spergularia australis Sampaio

Maybe I clicked synonyms somehow, but right now I cannot reproduce it.
Is pretty difficult to users arrive to this other "good link" which has 60 entries.
