Description

Use case: recent, extinct and fossil taxa are listed in same classification. Currently used in Corvidae portal.

To distinguish better between extinct and recent taxa in the taxon tree I propose to use a dagger (Totenkreuz) after the name string.

Currently I use a marker ("extinct") for those taxa. It is not essential to display the dagger in the EDITor, since the user here knows his/her taxa, but highly recommended for display at data portal.

Example: http://dev.e-taxonomy.eu/dataportal/corvidae/cdm_dataportal/taxon/e4171f61-a96e-4823-8248-dbb587d8e659

Corvus anitpodium T

(Unfortunately can not type dagger here for encoding reasons, but I hope you know what I mean)

first discuss if this can be handled via an explicit "status" (what is the best name to distiguish it from the taxonomic state like "accepted" or "synonym" - "fossil status" ??) field in the Taxon class.

Therefore I changed to Milestone CDM UML

You have to distinguish between extant and fossil. Extant are all species living in the Holocene (ca. 10.000 years before present until present, "rezente Arten"). Fossil are all species living (and become extinct) before Holocene age.

Fossil species are always extinct. Extant species are sometimes extinct (e.g. Mammoths).

A dagger should be displayed if a species is extinct.

Extinction in present days can be a conservation status (extinct in the wild, still alive in captivity) or a taxon is completely extinct. In the latter case the dagger also should appear.

I searched the web for a suitable term but couldn't find something.

Therefore I suggest the term: "Extinction status"

Status: Fossil

Status: Extant and Extinct

Status: Extant and Still alive OR Extant and not extinct (would be the default value)

Since our diatom people are the only group currently handling data of fossil (specimens) at BGBM I cc Henning as well, maybe he can help here.

Henning:

Hallo zusammen,

fürchte, ich kann in dem Fall mit meinem Diatomeenblick nicht wirklich weiterhelfen, weil:

1) wir meist mit Schalen = Mikrofossilien arbeiten. Was in den Sedimenten ist, nennen wir meist rezent oder "subfossil", ich gehe nicht in Details.

2) wir nie wissen, ob mikroskopische Arten wirklich "extinct" sind, d.h. in historischer Zeit ausstarben (was ist die Grundlagen? Deutschland, Europa, Welt?). Bei der Roten Liste ist die Kategorie in Deutschland 0= ausgestorben oder verschollen, zumindest im mikroskopischen Bereich keine belastbaren Daten zum Aussterben (wie beim Mammut o.ä.) möglich.

3) in den mit zugänglichen Diatomeenbüchern auf Kreuze verzichtet wird, auch wenn es sich um Taxa handelt, die vor dem Holozän ausgestorben sind.

Im Prinzip sind die Status, wie von Gabi angegeben, sinnvoll. Für höhere Tiere macht das Sinn, für Algen nicht mit einer Holozän-Grenze. Was sagen denn die Bearbeiter höherer Pflanzen dazu? (deshalb die Mail auch an Norbert).

Viele Grüße,

Henning
