There are 1885 species of Echinodermata that are commonly found in the Indian Ocean.

Information on the COI barcoding status of these species is presented in the table below.
MODE
A
All available COI barcodes for this taxa group (collected from any ocean and/or without geo-referencing):
  • Of the 1885 total species, 777 of these species (41%) have COI barcodes (from this or any ocean).
  • There are a total of 16893 "any ocean" COI barcode records available for this ocean and taxa group.
  • All available taxa group COI barcodes will be included in the Mode A downloads.
  • MODE
    B
    Regional COI barcodes for this taxa group (includes only those collected in the Indian Ocean region):
  • Of the 1885 total species, 0 of these species (0%) have Indian Ocean-collected COI barcodes.
  • There are a total of 0 "Indian Ocean-collected" COI barcodes available for this taxa group.
  • In the map to the right, Red Stars show sampling locations of the COI barcodes in the Mode B download.
  • Uncoded
    Species
    Of the 1885 total species in this region, 1108 species do not have any COI barcodes (from any region).
