FIGURE 2 in Harmonizing taxon names in biodiversity data: A review of tools, databases and best practices
FIGURE 2 Taxonomy as a unifying key for ecological datasets. The two sides represent two exemplary datasets, with a containing conservation status of taxa (here species) and B their traits (colours show different traits). The datasets are indexed by taxon names 'Sp1' to 'Sp6'. The rounded rectangle in the middle depicts the taxonomic harmonization process: (a) the names are extracted from each dataset, respectively in the orange and purple rectangles; (b) both lists are then compared to a taxonomic database which harmonizes all names. Here the names 'Sp1' and 'Sp6' refer to the same taxon in the taxonomic database (as indicated by the dashed lines). Without taxonomic harmonization, the exact match of names would have resulted in the loss of Sp5 and Sp6 when merging both datasets. LC, NT, VU, and CR are abbreviations of Red List statuses, meaning least concern, not threatened, vulnerable, and critically endangered, respectively
FIGURE 1 in Harmonizing taxon names in biodiversity data: A review of tools, databases and best practices
FIGURE 1 Typology of taxonomic databases according to their taxonomic breadth and their spatial scale. The x-axis represents increasing taxonomic breadth from a single taxonomic group to no clear taxonomic restriction (e.g. considering all biota or all Eukaryota). The y-axis represents spatial scale from regional to global. Each box represents a specific type of taxonomic database, with examples.

FIGURE 4 in Harmonizing taxon names in biodiversity data: A review of tools, databases and best practices
FIGURE 4 Diagram of different taxonomic harmonization workflows. The workflows differ in the number of steps they consider and the databases they leverage on. Rounded rectangles are lists of taxon names while diamonds represent taxonomic databases against which the names are matched. The different colours used at step 2 represent different taxonomic groups

FIGURE 3 Screenshot showing the network view of taxharmonizexplorer. The left section shows a table of each of the nodes in the network to let the user select manually nodes of interest, the top part presents a summary of the information on the selected node in the network. The right section displays the relationships between packages (which depends on which other), between databases (how one populates another one) and between packages and databases (which packages access which databases)

FIGURE 2 in Molecular parataxonomy as taxon description: examples from recently named Zoanthidea (Cnidaria: Anthozoa) with revision based on serial histology of microanatomy
FIGURE 2. Number, position, and type of marginal muscle attachment sites as they appear within serial longitudinal sections. Each bar represents a 10 Μm longitudinal section with the number and type of muscle attachment points; open bars indicate mesogleal lacunae, black bars indicate mesogleal pleats. Empty positions indicate missing data due to sectioning artifact. Arrows at transitions from endodermal (dominated by pleats) to mesogleal (dominated by lacunae) and the reverse. Inlay diagram demonstrates plane of microtome blade (dotted lines) against the diameter of the polyp (outer ring) and marginal muscle (broken ring). A.

FIGURE 21 in A new genus and new species of fan worms (Polychaeta: Sabellidae) from Atlantic and Pacific Oceans—the formal treatment of taxon names as explanatory hypotheses
FIGURE 21. Detail of the phylogenetic hypothesis, Sabellomma, and specific hypotheses, from Fig. 20, showing optimizations of dorsal pinnular appendages. The formal definitions of these hypotheses are also presented, indicating that specific hypothesis S. minuta cannot be defined (cf. Figs 23–24 for alternative optimizations).
FIGURE 23 in A new genus and new species of fan worms (Polychaeta: Sabellidae) from Atlantic and Pacific Oceans—the formal treatment of taxon names as explanatory hypotheses
FIGURE 23. Detail of the phylogenetic and specific hypotheses from Fig. 22, showing optimizations of dorsal pinnular appendages. The formal definitions of these hypotheses are also presented, indicating that specific hypotheses S. collinae and S. harrisae cannot be defined (cf. Figs 21, 24 for alternative optimizations).
FIGURE 20 in A new genus and new species of fan worms (Polychaeta: Sabellidae) from Atlantic and Pacific Oceans—the formal treatment of taxon names as explanatory hypotheses
FIGURE 20. Strict consensus tree presented in Fig. 19, but 'inapplicable' character optimizations for distribution of simple eyes (subject 9; cf. Tables 6–7) correctly treated as inapplicable. Note that Sabellomma is monophyletic on the basis of simple eyes distributed along the entire lengths of radioles [9(1)]. Relationships among Sabellomma are determined by one of the optimizations of dorsal pinnular appendages (subject 13); compare with alternate optimization in Fig. 22.
FIGURE 19 in A new genus and new species of fan worms (Polychaeta: Sabellidae) from Atlantic and Pacific Oceans—the formal treatment of taxon names as explanatory hypotheses
FIGURE 19. Strict consensus tree of six minimum-length cladograms (phylogenetic analysis 2 - see text for discussion), showing relationships among apomorphic genera within Sabellinae. Note that the genus Sabellomma is paraphyletic. Character optimizations across all cladograms are indicated for the following subjects (cf. Tables 6–7): 9. distribution of simple eyes along radiole margins; 13. dorsal pinnular appendages; 21. interramal eyespots. Note the ambiguous optimizations for distribution of simple eyes, as a consequence of the use of 'inapplicable' codings.
