That's a huge change!

Good suggestion @thebeachcomber. This taxonomic change came out some time back, but I agree that it would be worthwhile informing the Australasian Fishes Project community. Thank you.

Changing Scaridae to Labridae is fine with me but I do agree with @maractwin that keeping the parrotfishes under subfamily Scarinae would be helpful. Currently when you search on Scarinae it defaults to Labridae (Scarinae) which retrieves both the wrasses and parrotfishes.

We used to have:

Scaridae

Sparisomatinae
Scarinae

do you mean 'Scarinae' as Scaridae treated as a subfamily or as Scarinae (sister to Sparisomatinae)?

OK I reverted the change that swapped the subfamilies into the wrass family and set up this deviation

should be sorted

Hi @loarie. Apologies, I though we had nailed the parrotfish probem but it is more complex than I thought.

As explained by parrotfish expert Kendall Clements -

"I don't care if you use "Scarinae" or Bellwood's "Scarini" for the overall parrotfish tribe. As Bellwood points out, the term Scarinae was used in the past for the sub-tribe that includes Bolbometopon, Cetoscarus, Hipposcarus, Chlorurus and Scarus. I think he's suggesting using Scarini for the whole parrotfish group, i.e. Scarina + Sparisomatina, to avoid this historical confusion. The main point is that we need a single name for the parrotfish tribe. This tribe contains two sub-tribes:

Scarina = Bolbometopon, Cetoscarus, Hipposcarus, Chlorurus + Scarus
Sparisomatina = Cryptotomus, Nicholsina, Leptoscarus, Calotomus + Sparisoma.

Is that clear?

Sparisominae (or phylogenetic equivalent) must sit within whatever you end up calling the parrotfish tribe.

Thank you @loarie. Probably best if @kendallclements sees your comment and I stop being a go-between.
Again, my apologies for stuffing you around.

I really don't think this is that complex! Although iNaturalist should recognise that the parrotfishes sit within Labridae there are two problems with having the two parrotfish clades (i.e. what you call Scarinae and Sparisomatinae) as subfamilies within Labridae. First, these two "subfamilies" are then of equal rank to other groups of Labridae such as Hypsigenyini, Julidini, Pseudolabrini, etc. This is incorrect. The parrotfish clade as a whole should be taxonomically equivalent to these other clades of Labridae, not the two sub-groups of parrotfishes. Second, by separating these two sub-clades of parrotfishes iNaturalist won't have all the parrotfish under one name. Parrotfish are monophyletic, and iNaturalist should recognise that.
For the purposes of iNaturalist I think it's much more important to have all the parrotfishes under one name than worry about distinguishing clades of parrotfishes. Is it possible to put all the parrotfishes in a single group within Labridae? You could use Bellwood's term Scarini for this, or if you don't like that you could use Scarinae. Bellwood and colleagues (Bellwood et al. Ann. Naturhist. Mus. Wien, Serie A 121: 125-193 2019) say:

"Given the need to recognize the parrotfishes as a distinct group (it is monophyletic with a
broad suite of morphological synapomorphies and a distinct ecology [Bellwood 1994;
Bonaldo et al. 2014]) we recognize the parrotfishes as a separate tribe, the Scarini
(scarines), that lies as the sister clade to the Cheilini (following Gomon & Russell [in
(Bellwood 1994)] and Gomon 1997). The term Scarini was first applied to parrotfishes
by Bonaparte, 1831. Together, the Scarini and Cheilini are sister to the Atlantic wrasses
in the clade Labrini (Fig. 2). There is also distinct phylogenetic structure within the parrotfishes
that reflects ecological and biogeographic trends (Cowman et al. 2009; Bonaldo
et al. 2014). The tribe Scarini is, therefore, further divided into two subtribes, the
Sparisomatina (previously recognized as the subfamily Sparisomatinae) and the Scarina
(previously the subfamily Scarinae)."

So I think the best solution is to treat the parrotfishes as a single tribe. Is that now clear? It's not my job to convince Ron Fricke of anything! What I'm telling you is how the technical literature recognises the group.

That's correct. Parrotfishes are a tribe (Scarini) within Labridae that consists of two subtribes: Scarina and Sparisomatina.

ok reverted, rewired, recommitted and committed https://www.inaturalist.org/taxon_changes/123769 and https://www.inaturalist.org/taxon_changes/123770
might take a while to process but I think this should now be as you want it
