https://id.biodiversity.org.au/instance/apni/833464

An identifier for the set of taxon information (data associated with the Taxon class). May be a global unique identifier or an identifier specific to the data set. Must be resolvable within this dataset.

The taxon identifier for the accepted name is the nodeID in the NSL.
The taxon identifier for a synonym is the relationshipID in the NSL.

The taxonID provides for read consistency within a classification at the point in time the taxon extract is taken. It is not a global identifier.

https://id.biodiversity.org.au/instance/apni/594478

https://id.biodiversity.org.au/instance/apni/545946

An identifier for the taxonomic concept to which the record refers.

The identifier for the accepted name is the instance.instanceID in the NSL.
The identifier for a synonym is the instance.citesID in the NSL.

The taxonConceptId is persistent across extracts and will be consistent for the time for which a concept is accepted. Changes in the circumscription of a taxon that occur through the publication of a new taxon concept will result in a new identifier.
