Heads up: Some or all of the identifications affected by
this split may have been replaced with identifications of Dascyllus. This
happens when we can't automatically assign an identification to one of the
output taxa.

Borsa, P., A. Sembiring, C. Fauvelot and W.-J. Chen, 2014. Resurrection of Indian Ocean humbug damselfish, Dascyllus abudafur (Forsskål) from synonymy with its Pacific Ocean sibling, Dascyllus aruanus (L.). Comptes Rendus Biologies, Elsevier Masson, 337(709-716).
The observations in Western Australia and around Bali are D. aruanus. The observation at Christmas Island isn't reliably identifiable due to the poor quality of the photo, though it is most likely D. aruanus.
Question: does the "atlasing" effect future observations? For example, if someone observed the Indian Ocean taxon at Bali, will it automatically be changed incorrectly to the Pacific taxon?
Unintended disagreements occur when a parent (B) is
thinned by swapping a child (E) to another part of the
taxonomic tree, resulting in existing IDs of the parent being interpreted
as disagreements with existing IDs of the swapped child.
Identification
ID 2 of taxon E will be an unintended disagreement with ID 1 of taxon B after the taxon swap
If thinning a parent results in more than 10 unintended disagreements, you
should split the parent after swapping the child to replace existing IDs
of the parent (B) with IDs that don't disagree.
