Taxonomic Index - Catalogue of Life

The principal taxonomic index of the DNA Bank Network is based on the Catalogue of Life: 2011 Annual Checklist: http://www.catalogueoflife.org.
If a DNA sample for a taxon has been found in the database of the DNA Bank Network's web portal the taxon is highlighted in bold letters.

The number of taxa and DNA samples is bracketed.
Example: Plantae (4599/9106) -> 4599 botanical taxa and 9106 plant DNA samples are available via the web portal

Info: The Species 2000 & ITIS Catalogue of Life is planned to become a comprehensive catalogue of all known species of organisms on Earth. Rapid progress has been made recently and this edition of the Catalogue of Life contains 1,333,403 species. Please note that this is probably just about 2/3 of the world's known species. This means that for many groups it continues to be deficient, and users will notice that many species are still missing from the Catalogue. © 2011, Species 2000
