Make the larger taxon ranks in dropdowns more apparent

Description of need:
Whenever I’m trying to sort observations so I’m only seeing things set a certain high and low taxon rank, I always spend too much time trying to find the rank I’m looking for. Such as with species, it’s hard to find it between complex, hybrid, subspecies, subsection, etc. especially if I’m trying to be fast so I can identify more.

Feature request details:
Make the larger taxon ranks (e.g. Species, Genus, Family, maybe Tribe, etc.) bolded or a darker green so they’re easier to find quickly. I made an example below.

Would be nice on the new taxon and taxon edit pages too:

I agree, the more common and widespread taxon ranks should be highlighted. There are many niche ranks, many not on INaturalist also. This would definitely help many including myself.

Seems like a good idea, and not as big to implement.
