  1. What is “phyloinformatics”?

  2. Linking biodiversity data together

  3. Apomys datae

  4. Apomys specimen

  5. How do we integrate these data?

  6. Why integrate?

  7. Learn stuff we don’t know

  8. There are knownknowns, things we know that we know • There are knownunknowns, things we now know we don’t know • But there are also unknownunknowns, things we do not know we don't know

  9. Unknown knowns

  10. Things we know …without knowing that we know

  11. Melissotarsus insularis

  12. 1 Melissotarsus insularis CASENT0107663-D01 CASENT0107663-D01 DQ176312 DQ176312 Melissotarsus sp. BLF m1 = Melissotarsus sp. BLF m1 Melissotarsus insularis Melissotarsusinsularis no hit

  13. No one source has all the answers

  14. Single source

  15. Many sources

  16. Combine sources

  17. ispecies.org

  18. Linking • Finding information about organisms • Linking together in “mashups”

  19. Geography

  20. @rdmpage

  21. @andrewxhill

  22. Geography • Species distributions • Geophylogenies

  23. Taxonomy

  24. Names can change…Leptodactylus fuscus (Schneider) Rana fusca Schneider 1802 Ranatyphonia Sonnini & Latreille 1803 Ranatyphonia Daudin 1824 Ranasibilatrix Wied 1826 Leptodactylustyphonius Fitzinger 1841 Cystignathustyphonius Dumeril & Bibron 1843 Leptodactylustyphonius Fitzinger 1858 Cystignathusfuscus Günther 1882 Leptodactylustyphonius Boulenger 1927 Leptodactylussibilatrix Müller 1935 Leptodactylussibilatrix Parker 1968 Leptodactylusfuscus Heyer

  25. Taxonomy as a source of data

  26. “Dark taxa”

  27. Classification

  28. http://synthesis.eol.org/media/treemap/

  29. @kzelnio Think how great of a tool that could be at museums on a large flat screen at 4 year old height.

  30. Taxonomy • Names • Synonyms • Classifications • Visualisation

  31. Phylogeny
