Species List for Study

[wcornwell]

Be good to sorta soon get a list of the species in the study. I'm getting 621 species (binomials) as the intersection of the phylo and the body size data.

But might be good to start with a list from another source?

probably requires doing some work on #6

[coreytcallaghan]

Yeah, I'll see about creating a look-up table of sorts soon.

[johnWilshire]

We should exclude birds that occur in less than a certain number of checklists, ie birds that occur less than 100 times would exclude these: cutting down our species to 584 from 717

[coreytcallaghan]

Yeah, 100 is a bit high probably, because some of those species are pretty interested and should come out as heavily non-urban. Species like Inland Dotterel and Gray Falcon, etc.

But, some of the species on there are likely escapees etc. so they should be eliminated. I think should work when we do a mega-species join. I'll get onto it soon.

[wcornwell]

I'd like to see a Fawn-breasted Bowerbird some day. Haven't had much chance to go birding, but did see Cedar Waxwings and a Say's Phoebe

[coreytcallaghan]

This looks like it should be helpful: http://avibase.bsc-eoc.org/compare.jsp?source1=ebird&version1=EBIRD1_55&source2=ioc&version2=IOC4_04&continent=&reg_type=3

[coreytcallaghan]

Have created a lookup table now.

Looks like over 100 species are not included in the tree - at least in the same scientific name as they are in traits data.

[coreytcallaghan]

I'm gonna close this for now, as it is directly linked to #6 and I have made some progress on that. Once we figure out the match between tree and bird taxonomy lookup table, that will dictate the list of species in the study.

Can reopen this, if need be.
