MorphoBank's Taxonomy Browser is designed to help scientists and the public navigate the data on the site. The taxonomic hierarchy is generated by matching Taxa in MorphoBank to the NCBI taxonomic database through the Global Names Architecture, which collects names of living and extinct species. The Taxonomy Browser is updated nightly to reflect new data in MorphoBank and updates to taxonomic authorities. We understand that no taxonomic authority is perfect and that taxonomy is always being revised - this browser is simply a tool to facilitate data access within MorphoBank. What do I do if I am a scientist with data in MorphoBank and do not see my taxon listed?
