http://www.organismnames.com/metrics.htm?page=graphs&searchType=tree&expand=64090&novType=All%20ranks&q=Organisms

roughly about 20,000 new taxa, more than the 17,000 but with slightly less new species we have in the Arcadia proposal http://www.organismnames.com/metrics.htm?page=graphs&searchType=tree&expand=64090&novType=All%20ranks&q=Organisms

Cool, thanks. It's good that this is based on the Zoological Record, not on other products of them, like the Impact Factor. This is because ZR has a much broader journal selection than IF (e.g. Linzer and Insecta Mundi are on ZR, but not IF).

It's going to be interesting to see how the pandemic will affect these numbers in the current year.

Cheers,
