Returns complete taxonomy (kingdom to genus), accepted name and authority, valid AphiaID for synonyms, citation string, LSID (life science identifier), habitat flags, and last-modified date. Use this to resolve synonym chains — if status is "unaccepted", valid_AphiaID points to the accepted taxon. Source: World Register of Marine Species, CC BY 4.0.
