Description: Apparently we create separate occurrence records for ABCD units with multiple identifications. This appears to be a legacy procedure and a single occurrence record with multiple identifications, but a single current/preferred one should probably be created in the new store. Creating multiple records for a single specimen would also lead to wrong counts.

In addition to ABCD dwc archives might also have an identification extension that will supply multiple identifications, see http://rs.gbif.org/extension/dwc/identification.xml]]>
