  • Links to the Tree of Life website, APweb, EOL, wikipedia/wikispecies (where appropriate).
  • A search engine to run GenBank searches for sequences relevant to clades that correspond to the hierarchy in the network
  • A bibliographic database, or search engine, to find literature relevant to clades. Maybe this is nothing more than an automated link to Google Scholar, but it would be great if there could be a database of downloadable pdfs for relevant material that is public domain or open access.

  • An automated system to send out notifications of newly described species as they are added to IPNI, or other sources?
