See http://staging.gbif.org:8080/portal/species/114939946
Currently the holotype links to: http://staging.gbif.org:8080/portal/occurrence/search?q=Aalatettix+gibbosa+Zheng%2C+Cao+&+Chen%2C+2011=
Type specimens, perhaps this can be renamed to Typifications. Otherwise, "Type specimens" can only refer to a species. Anything higher (ie genus) should refer to a "Type species".

As of the latest change to POR-620, the link should be fine. The full text species search (?q=) goes through scientificName - please refer to http://dev.gbif.org/wiki/display/POR/Webservice+API#WebserviceAPI-ChecklistBankServices:SearchService We don't have a parameter for "scientificName" on species search.
For example, the type specimen link being produced now is something like http://localhost:8080/species/search?q=Abrosoma+discolor+Redtenbacher%2C+1906 which is correct.
