| Summary: | A list of species in the Canadian marine waters: the Atlantic, the Arctic and the Pacific. ... : In spring 2009, the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans’ National Science Data Management Committee (DFO-NSDMC) created a national activity with the mandate to promote the use of taxonomic standards within the Science Branch of DFO and to develop and implement best-practice procedures for the quality control of biological names used by DFO. The largest global standard for aquatic species names is the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS). The objective of WoRMS is to provide an authoritative and comprehensive list of names of marine organisms, including information on synonymy. The thematic regional node for Canada, the Canadian Register of Marine Species (CaRMS) encompasses the marine component of the master register in WoRMS. The taxonomic scope of CaRMS will be to cover species from the three realms of the ocean: the seafloor (meio-, macro- and megazoobenthos; micro- and macrophytobenthos), the water column (phytoplankton, zooplankton, nekton) and the sea-ice. CaRMS contains detailed ... |
