Scratchpads “community tools for taxonomists” Vincent S. Smith Simon D. Rycroft Dave Roberts
Macro scale taxonomy The big picture of taxonomic research Goal… • Inventory the Earth’s species • Document their relationships • “Publish” these data Data set… • 1.8M described species (10M names) • 300M pages (over last 250 years) • 1.5-3B specimens People… • 4-6,000 scientists • 30-40,000 amateurs • Many more citizen scientists?
Micro scale taxonomy The practice of taxonomic research Parochial… • Specialised • Experts • Fragmented distributed Methodological… • Communities of practice • Hard to record update • High output but low impact Different… • Data • Interpretations • Methods How do we integrate micro macro taxonomy?
