Diversity Collection

Identification

Non biological units

Non biological units like soil, rock or mineral do not have biology related information like a qualifier or a type status. These are therefore not displayed for these groups. Furthermore the source for the names is not DiversityTaxonNames but DiversityScientificTerms (see a short tutorial , ).

If the source for a non biological unit is set to a DiversityScientificTerms database (see above ) a chart button will appear. With a click on this button you can select the term from a chart as shown below.

In the database the data for the identification is stored in the table Identification.
