Adding a taxon that iNaturalist is unaware of

The taxon Rhynchomonas nasuta is a common and cosmopolitan taxon. Yet it is not recognized by iNaturalist or any of its names providers. If iNaturalist added Global Names Index to its names providers, then it would be picked up. EOL does know of it - https://eol.org/pages/898675. So there is a solution. What is the usual path to adding a taxon that iNaturalist does not know about

(this seems like more of a question than a feature request so I moved it to General)

This FAQ describes the two methods you can use to add a taxon to iNaturalist.

Unless someone just got to it, there is already a taxon page for R. nasuta.

That was created in April so it had been in the database for some time
