BioNames update - live mockup

Things are finally coming together, at least enough to have a functioning demo. It looks awful, but shows the main things I want BioNames to do. One thing I'm most concerned about at this stage is the possible confusion users might experience between taxon names and concepts. For example, there are two pages about Pteropus, one about the name Pteropus, the other about the bat that bears this name (as understood by GBIF).

The demo is live at http://bionames.org/bionames-api/mockup_index.php (note that this is a temporary URL so I can't guarantee it will be online when you read this).
