No ay of searching higher level taxonomic classification for fishes #4600

No ay of searching higher level taxonomic classification for fishes

I recently ran this search to try and find all fish records from Nepal - https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?basis_of_record=PRESERVED_SPECIMEN&country=NP&occurrence_status=present. When drilling down into scientific name under Chjordata I realized that there is no entry for fishes and I am wondering why? This obviously has something to do with the taxonomic authority you are using or a mismatch of some kind. Can you outline why this is the case and how we can fix this?

Thanks

Andy

@acbentley, you are right, because there no longer an Actinopterygii class in the backbone taxonomy (see https://github.com/gbif/checklistbank/issues/79 and https://github.com/gbif/pipelines/issues/850), users need to look for the fish orders.

It looks like there are 2,533 preserved specimen occurrences of fish in Nepal: https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?basis_of_record=PRESERVED_SPECIMEN&country=NP&taxon_key=1103&taxon_key=1104&taxon_key=494&taxon_key=495&taxon_key=1105&taxon_key=496&taxon_key=497&taxon_key=1106&taxon_key=498&taxon_key=499&taxon_key=1107&taxon_key=537&taxon_key=538&taxon_key=1153&taxon_key=547&taxon_key=1162&taxon_key=548&taxon_key=549&taxon_key=550&taxon_key=1163&taxon_key=1164&taxon_key=1165&taxon_key=1166&taxon_key=1167&taxon_key=1305&taxon_key=1067&taxon_key=1306&taxon_key=1307&taxon_key=1308&taxon_key=1068&taxon_key=1069&taxon_key=587&taxon_key=1310&taxon_key=588&taxon_key=589&taxon_key=1311&taxon_key=1312&taxon_key=1313&taxon_key=590&taxon_key=708&taxon_key=890&taxon_key=774&taxon_key=889&taxon_key=773&taxon_key=772&taxon_key=888&occurrence_status=present
