The following taxonomicCoverage sub-elements are actually optionals and should be mandatories:
- taxonRank
- commonName

GBIF EML Schema:
<xs:element name="taxonRankName" type="NonEmptyStringType" minOccurs="0">
...
<xs:element name="commonName" type="NonEmptyStringType" minOccurs="0">

---------
generalTaxonomicCoverage element should be also mandatory?

Actually is optional:
<xs:element name="generalTaxonomicCoverage" type="NonEmptyStringType" minOccurs="0">
