Scientific name parser allows to compare names from different datasets, check if names are well-formed, collect data about authors, years etc.

GNparser is rebuilt from scratch in Go language. It is now 100 times faster than original Ruby code, and from 2 to 8 times faster than Scala code. Ruby version of GNparser, biodiversity gem, uses Go code internally now.
