Mustelidae of the World Oceans

There are 4 species of Mustelidae that are commonly found in the World Oceans.

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 4 total species, 3 of these species (75%) have COI barcodes (from this or any ocean).
  • There are a total of 78 "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 World Oceans region):
  • Of the 4 total species, 3 of these species (75%) have World Oceans-collected COI barcodes.
  • There are a total of 78 "World Oceans-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 4 total species in this region, 1 species do not have any COI barcodes (from any region).

     Barcoding progress summary for the World Oceans region, out of a total of 4 possible species:
    • There are COI barcodes for 3 species ( 75% coverage ).
      •
    • There are 12S barcodes for 3 species ( 75% coverage ). 
    • There are 16S barcodes for 3 species ( 75% coverage ).
