WoRMS Get Synonyms

Get the taxonomic synonyms (unaccepted names) for a marine taxon from the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) by its AphiaID. Returns names that resolve to the same valid AphiaID, each with its status (e.g. 'unaccepted'), unaccept reason, authority, and the valid_AphiaID/valid_name they map to. The name search returns only the matched record, not its full synonymy. No API key required.
