You find a species list with current names here, supplemented by some additional information. It includes links to full text papers (the original descriptions), as far as we have copyright clearance. It is also hyperlinked from the genera-links in the table bove.

Note, that we can only link the pdf-files from the species-list page, due to legal reasons (copyright), so you will always get linked via that list.

As we try to bring together taxonomy and molecular phylogeny, we want to invite everybody to help with updating and adding data. Such information, including respective references etc., can also be cited here. We are also prepared to show controversial views.
