Paleobiology Database (PBDB)

The Paleobiology Database is a public resource for the global scientific community. It has been organized and operated by a multi-disciplinary, multi-institutional, international group of paleobiological researchers. Its purpose is to provide global, collection-based occurrence and taxonomic data for marine and terrestrial animals and plants of any geological age, as well as web-based software for statistical analysis of the data. The project__s wider, long-term goal is to encourage collaborative efforts to answer large-scale paleobiological questions by developing a useful database infrastructure and bringing together large data sets. <p></p>http://paleobiodb.org/<p></p>The Paleobiology Database is a public database of paleontological data that anyone can use, maintained by an international non-governmental group of paleontologists. <p></p>https://paleobiodb.org/#/

Figure 19 in Paleobiology Database User Guide Version 1.0

Figure 19. Typical Systematic Paleontology section of a primary journal reference (Sumrall et al. 2009, PBDB ref. 65844). In this listing, the opinion linking species Cardiocystella prolixora to genus Cardiocystella and that linking Cardiocystella to Cothurnocystidae are "with evidence" whereas the other opinions are "without evidence."
