Open MichalTorma opened 1 year ago

MichalTorma commented 1 year ago

Lutz Bachmann has requested that we create a database of mitogenomic information for type specimens. We discussed this and have agreed to use the GBIF checklist dataset as the starting point. Here is a work in progress google sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uhFveblnwUjg78TxxGzySTvYE8XYQh_bK4rgry3kCRY/edit?usp=sharing.
