How would you expect to find a subgenus, which in the term subgenus is combined with its genus for disambiguating homonymies, when you cite it as part of the higherClassification?  Do you cite it as you do in the term for subgenus or "naked"?

Aphis (Aphis) glycines

<dwc:higherClassification>Animalia;Arthropoda;Insecta;Hemiptera;Sternorrhyncha;Aphidoidea;Aphididae;Aphis;Aphis (Aphis)</dwc:higherClassification>

or

<dwc:higherClassification>Animalia;Arthropoda;Insecta;Hemiptera;Sternorrhyncha;Aphidoidea;Aphididae;Aphis;Aphis</dwc:higherClassification>

considering that there are about 4 other possible ranks in between the subgenus and species?

Thanks!
Gail
