Protozoa of the South Atlantic

There are 15 species of Protozoa that are commonly found in the South Atlantic.

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 15 total species, 3 of these species (20%) have COI barcodes (from this or any ocean).
  • There are a total of 12 "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 South Atlantic region):
  • Of the 15 total species, 0 of these species (0%) have South Atlantic-collected COI barcodes.
  • There are a total of 0 "South Atlantic-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 15 total species in this region, 12 species do not have any COI barcodes (from any region).

     Barcoding progress summary for the South Atlantic region, out of a total of 15 possible species:
