*'''family''': include family. If higher ranks are not included in your data, we will intuit those ranks from family up for better searchability in our index using the [http://www.gbif.org/dataset/d7dddbf4-2cf0-4f39-9b2a-bb099caae36c GBIF backbone taxonomy]. Higher taxonomy is NOT intuited in the case where the DwC identification history extension is included in your archive. | *'''family''': include family.
