We don't have taxon rank in our specimen data either and I will find out tomorrow it GBIF can figure out the rank. I'll let you know what I find out.
from rinse-registry-checklist.
The name parser of GBIF can figure out the rank of the taxon in some cases, e.g. in case of a species, a form, a cultivar, a subspecies or an infrasubspecies. It does not specifiy the rank above the species level (strange enough).
When the plant names are specifified as Genus specificEpithet infraspecificEpithet
, name parsing works fine, so I assume name matching will be fine too?
Why not to provide a taxonRank for the infraspecific names? It is usefull information, even though the name is not 100% correct...?

The GBIF name parser != name matching. The name parser just reads a string and tries to figure out how to parse it. It is independent from the backbone.
Also, I think the parser will only provide a specific infraspecific rank if that information is included in the name string. Compare: http://api.gbif.org/v1/parser/name?name=Sinapis%20alba%20dissecta&name=Sinapis%20alba%20var.%20dissecta
If var.
is included in the name, the name parser will indicate rankMarker var.
, otherwise infrasp.
. Not sure if this is the same result you get from rgbif?
For infraspecific ranks, I would add the valid rank infraspecificname
(see http://rs.gbif.org/vocabulary/gbif/rank_2015-04-24.xml)
from rinse-registry-checklist.
I get the same result from rgbif. In this case, all these species are considered to be infrasp
Good suggestion to use infraspecificname
