I've tried to refine the data and find the existing codes for each of the new species...The source I used is uBio FindIT - http://iphylo.org/~rpage/phyloinformatics/services/reconciliation_ubio.php, as suggested by our professor in our Phyloinformatics course. So I've updated the table that we are going to work with. Hopefully this will let us create a phylogenetic tree for some of the species. Unfortunately, the number of species without an ID code are still many: This pie chart shows the percentage of the new mammal species that are still without a unique ID: 57.9%. In our report we will analyze the importance of globally unique identifiers for species.
