Dataset: spp_barcodes

The CMarZ database currently comprises two groups, calanoid copepods and euphausiids. The lineage of each group from kingdom to order is as follows:

Euphausiids:
Eukaryota (Kingdom); Metazoa; Arthropoda; Crustacea;
Malacostraca; Eumalacostraca; Eucarida; Euphausiacea (Order)

Calanoid copepods:
Eukaryota (Kingdom); Metazoa; Arthropoda; Crustacea;
Maxillopoda; Copepoda; Calanoida (Order)

We anticipate that other groups of zooplankton will be added to expand the taxonomic coverage of the CMarZ database. In order to make entry into the database as straightforward as possible, the first level of the database menu will begin at the systematic level of the order, which we refer to here by the common names of these groups: calanoid, copepods and euphausiids.
