Confluence Retirement

Due to the feedback from stakeholders and our commitment to not adversely impact USGS science activities that Confluence supports, we are extending the migration deadline to January 2023.

In an effort to consolidate USGS hosted Wikis, myUSGS’ Confluence service is targeted for retirement. The official USGS Wiki and collaboration space is now SharePoint. Please migrate existing spaces and content to the SharePoint platform and remove it from Confluence at your earliest convenience. If you need any additional information or have any concerns about this change, please contact myusgs@usgs.gov. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

2.0Algae_2.0.xlsxJuly 18, 2012Batch retirement of a set of outdated bench taxa.Paul D Lindorff
3.0Algae_3.0.xlsxJuly 26, 2012Edited BioData names: Undifferentiated dead diatoms from soft algae count Undifferentiated diatoms from soft algae count BacillariophyceaeSarah A Spaulding
4.0Algae_4.0.xlsxAugust 19, 2012Incorporation of names from the Diatoms of the United States web project - addition of new names, editing of existing names, transfer of names to new rank. Added Navicula vaneei 93252Sarah A Spaulding
5.0Algae_5.0.xlsxOctober 5, 2012Correcting and normalizing published authorities.Paul D Lindorff
5.1Algae_5.1.xlsxOctober 9, 2012In previous versions, bench names were linked to "concept reference". Algal "concept references" commonly have very long strings that were easy to misspell by labs and others. In an effort to allow users to clarify names in a more natural way, authorship of species (that is, for BioData Bench Names) were added in this version. - S. SpauldingPaul D Lindorff
5.2Algae_5.2.xlsxOctober 10, 2012Made adjustments in response to Mitch's ANSP test load of Oct. 10, 2012: ADDED Biremis sp. 1 ? Staurosirella incognita Morales and Manoylov NADEDID 1430 Unknown Cyanophyte (fasciculated sheath) MOVED TO DEPRECATED (undifferentiated) diatoms> (dead) (undifferentiated) diatoms> (dead) Gomphonema aff. minutum ANS NAWQA EAM Gomphonema sp. 2 ANS NEW JERSEY KCP Homoeothrix sp. 1 ANS OZRK Navicula aff. subminuscula ANS NAWQA EAM Synedra sp. 8 NAWQA MORALES Unknown Chlorophyte coccoid Unknown Cyanophyte (colonial coccoid) Unknown Rhodophyte Florideophycidae (chantransia)Sarah A Spaulding
5.3Algae_5.3.xlsxJanuary 27, 2013In this version, new names, transfers and corrections from the Diatoms of the US project and the diatom ANS 2011 list are added. Note that the soft algae from the ANS 2011 are not included. The changes cover adding 165 published names, 153 biodata names, 625 bench names; modifying 113 published names, 110 biodata names, 362 bench names; deleting 57 published names, 56 biodata names.Sarah A Spaulding
6.0Algae_6.0.xlsxJanuary 27, 2013New names and transfers of soft algae nomenclature from the ANS 2011 are included.Sarah A Spaulding
6.1Algae_6.1.xlsxMay 2, 2013Changed "Achnanthidium minutissimum capitate morph" from appearing as a scientific name to "Achnanthes minutissima var. capitata", which is a valid taxon. Note that there are a number of varieties of Achnanthes minutissima that have not be transferred (in published literature) to Achnanthidium minutissimum. As a result, species, varieties and forms appear in both Achnanthes and Achnanthidium. This will be confusing to users. Deleted "Achnanthidium minutissimum fo. linear lanceolate no stauros" as a scientific name and moved the member bench taxon names to "Achnanthidium minutissimum". Changed rank of Cymbopleura crassipunctata from subspecies (which was my error in entry) to speciesSarah A Spaulding
6.2Algae_6.2.xlsxMay 7, 2013This draft was produced to correct a sorting problem that was likely introduced in one of the previous batch updates; no taxonomic changes should be included; see BIODATADB-3522; sibling sort order should have been the only value to change for any given taxon and it should have only changed from "1" to null; the 9 phyla should have kept their original 1-9 sibling sort orders.Scott A Grotheer
6.3Algae_6.3.xlsxOctober 18, 2013Minor edits in scientific names and authors were made in response to feedback from Dawn Hamilton at Ecoanalysts. BIODATATAXONNAME PUBLISHED SORT ORDER SCIENTIFICNAME Notes - dlh SAS resolution SAS notes Woloszynskia coronata 3000099 Woloszynskia coronata (Woloszyñska) Thompson added ~ in author name yes corrected to Woloszyñska Tryblionella debilis 3006009 Tryblionella debilis Arnott ex O'Meara added ' in author name yes corrected to O'Meara Treubaria setigerum 3000732 Treubaria setigerum (Archer) G. M. Smith G. M. vs. G.M. yes corrected to G.M. Smith Treubaria planctonica 3000730 Treubaria planctonica (G.M. Smith) Korshikov G. M. vs. G.M. yes should be G.M., as shown here Trachelomonas armata var. longispina 3002694 Trachelomonas armata var. longispina Playfair emend Deflandre Extra space after var. yes corrected Scenedesmus obscura 3000821 Scenedesmus should have sp. name in sci name yes 1) removed "in Van Heurck" from SN 2) added bench concept that lacks "in Van Heurck" Porphyrosiphon luteus 3003768 Porphyrosiphon luteus (Gomont) Anagnostidis and Komárek extra space after genus yes corrected Nitzschia linearis 3005764 Nitzschia linearis (Agardh) Smith Should this be W. Smith? yes corrected to read "W. Smith" Nitzschia liebetruthii var. major 3005761 Nitzschia liebetruthii var. major Grunow liebetruthii or liebethruthii? NO in progress - trying to move in db - should be liebetruthii Nitzschia liebethruthii 3005759 Nitzschia liebethruthii Rabenhorst we standardized on liebetruthii since they both seem to be correct but can change if you decide otherwise NO in progress - trying to move in db Nitzschia brevissima Nitzschia brevissima Grunow in Van Heurck Has the “in” notation for the author yes Under BioData BenchTaxonName, both Nitzschia brevissima Grunow and N. brevissima Grunow in Van Heurck are included as "current names". I deprecated N. brevissima Grunow in Van Heurck to "retired" status. Mayamaea permitis 3008340 Mayamaea permitis (Hustedt) Bruder and Medlin extra space after genus yes corrected Lyngbya nordstedt 3003434 Lyngbya should have sp. name in sci name yes Neither INA nor Algaebase include the species name L. nordstedt. This could be an transposing error with Lyngbya distincta (Nordstedt) Schmidle. Until I can confirm it is a valid taxon it will be "reported out" at the genus level. Cosmarium simonyi 3001542 Cosmarium should have sp. name in sci name yes Neither INA nor Algaebase include the species name C. simonyi, therefore, until I can confirm it is a valid taxon it will be "reported out" at the genus level (Cosmarium). Cosmarium minor 3001541 Cosmarium should have sp. name in sci name yes INA does not include Cosmarium minor; Algaebase includes it, but does not show authorship or publication. I am not able to confirm that this is a validly described taxon. Therefore, when labs report C. minor, BioData will "report out" as Cosmarium, without specifing a species Achnanthes minutissima var. jackii 3005079 Achnanthidium jackii Rabenhorst should not be var. yes 1) changed BioDataTaxonName to Achnanthidium jackii 2) added BenchName Achnanthidium jackii RabenhorstSarah A Spaulding
