Cross-checking a catalog identity against its reference

A catalog identity check compares the name, sequence, modifications and represented form with a suitable reference. Agreement in one field is helpful but does not excuse a conflict in another.

For research use only. Not for human or veterinary use.

Record the source used for each corrected field. A reproducible check makes it clear whether a difference was a typographical error, a different convention or a genuinely different entity. Leave unresolved details out of definitive tables.
