           Summary: Nexus and fasta parsers have a problem with identical
                    taxa names
           Product: Biopython
           Version: 1.44
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P4
         Component: Main Distribution
        AssignedTo: biopython-dev at biopython.org
        ReportedBy: abetanco at staffmail.ed.ac.uk


When identical taxa names are used to identify different sequences, the nexus
and fasta parser will output both taxa names, but output the same sequence for
each of them. 
If it's not possible to store both sequences, maybe it would be better if only
one of the sequences were  written out, so at least it's obvious there's a
problem?
