The Taxonomy page provides the main interface of the EukMap platform to interact with/inspect the taxonomy: It provides an interactive tree to browse different versions of the taxonomy and a sidebar showing details about the active (selected) taxon.

This page is public and can viewed by any visitor of the EukMap website.

Additionally, logged in users can inspect the current Candidate taxonomy, a preview of the next release, and propose changes if the logged in user has Contributor privileges.

NOTE:
Opening the SVG will not show the embedded screenshot of the Taxonomy page. It shows the annotations, only. After downloading the SVG, both the annotations and the embedded screenshot screenshot will be shown. This seems to be a limitation of GitHub when accessing (showing) the SVG directly.
