GNR returns ARCTOS taxon_id = 2747463 as "Arrhenatherum elatius (Zapa¿.) Soó monstr. abnorme", incorrectly using a "¿" (hex: 0xC2 0xBF, unicode: U+00BF). Found by running http://resolver.globalnames.org/name_resolvers.json?names=Arrhenatherum%20elatius%20monstr.%20abnorme.

However the ARCTOS entry at: https://arctos.database.museum/name/Arrhenatherum%20elatius%20monstr.%20abnorme uses the correct "ł" character, as does the original IPNI entry: http://www.ipni.org/ipni/idPlantNameSearch.do?id=881488-1.

Same for ARCTOS taxon_id = 3019281 as "Vaccinium oxycoccos Turcz. ex Sto/rmer forma microcarpum". Was probably "Størmer" on input.

Thx.

I am going to update Arctos sometime in April, and I'll check for these names.
