</h3>
3 <p>The authorship part is divided into the original combination authorship and the combination authorship.
4 The earlier is put in brackets.
</p>
7 Example (bot.): (L.) Mill.
8 Example (zoo.): (XXX,
1830) XXX,
1845
11 <p>You can use either no authorship (only if not followed by any other part), the original combination
12 authorship, the combination authorship or both.

14 <p>The parser differentiates botanical and zoological authorship. The later has a year following the
15 author, separated by a comma. Botanical names only have authors.
16 Authorship may include single persons and teams. Team members are separated by
<code>&</code> . A placeholder
<code>al.
</code>
17 may be used for further team members. Both authorships may include ex-authors separated by
<code>ex
</code> or
<code>ex.
</code>
18 Some valid author strings are:

20 Example (bot.): (Greuther & L'Hiver & al. ex Müller & Schmidt) Clark ex Ciardelli
24 <p>The number of allowed special characters like
<code>'
</code> or
<code>-
</code> at the moment is beyond the scope of this
25 documentation and will change in the future.
