- Comment as I noted at Wikidata:Property_proposal/A_Utah_Flora_ID, the IDs are unique to the Symbiota (Q113639939) database, which has multiple portals covering different consortia of regional herbaria. I don't know if it is possible to access Symbiota data without going through one (and only one) of the portals, but if it is, there should be a property for a Symbiota ID, rather than multiple properties with the same ID for each of the Symbiota portals.
