<h2>Adding Taxa to your Taxonomic Tree the quick way</h2>
2

    
3
<p>Once you have created your first Classification, you can add taxa to
4
	build up your database according to your taxonomic treatment. You add
5
	taxa to your classification by creating a new taxon linked to both the
6
	classification and a parent taxon if appropriate. The following
7
	description is the quickest way to add a new taxon to your tree:</p>
8

    
9
<p>Point the mouse arrow at the Classification or the intended parent
10
	taxon of your new taxon. As you hover over the entries in the Taxon
11
	Navigator panel they will become highlighted and a hand icon will
12
	appear.</p>

<ol>
15
	<li>Click the right mouse button; a drop-down menu will appear.</li>
16
	<li>
17
		Point the mouse at the
18
		<strong>New </strong>
19
		option; a drop-down menu will appear.

		<strong>Taxon</strong>

	<li>Enter the name of the taxon, including authorship if you wish.</li>

		<strong>Finish</strong>
33

		<strong>Return</strong>

	The new taxon record will appear in the Taxon Navigator panel and is
42
	saved automatically:

45
<p>
46
	You can continue to add new taxa to any node in the classification in
47
	this way in order to build up your taxonomic treatment. To create and
48
	manage synonyms and other relationships, see

	If you want to open the taxon record to view the parsing status of the
55
	information you have input (see
56
	<a href="">Parsing Status Feedback</a>
57
	) or add to or edit the record (see the following section), simply
58
	double-click the taxon name in the
59
	<strong>Taxon Navigator</strong>
60
	panel.
