- 2. Our informatics grand challenge… “Link together evolutionary data… by developing analytical tools and proper documentation and then use this framework to conduct comparative analyses, studies of evolutionary process and biodiversity analyses” Cyndy Parr, Rob Guralnick, Nico Cellinese and Rod Page. TREE. doi:10.1016/j.tree.2011.11.001

- 4. Most of our output is not digital, open or linked • 15-20k new spp. described annually (2M total)1 • 30k nomenclatural acts (12M total) 1 • 20k phylogenies (750k total)2 • 31k taxa sequenced (360k taxa total)3 • 800k BioMed papers (40M total pp. of taxonomy) 4 • Countless specimens, images, maps, keys… Typically generated by small communities for “local” research projects Figures from 1) Zhang, Zootaxa 2011 4, 1-4; 2) Web-of-Science; 3) Genbank and 4) PubMed.
