This is the starting page from which you can add a name for a taxon (species or higher taxa) by clicking "new taxon concept". To edit an existing taxon name you can type to find or use the tree. Clicking the name unfolds underlying taxa, clicking the arrow opens the taxon page where you can edit.Index

Define categories
Each taxon page consists of one or more categories, with a maximum of 50. The first category, '%s', is mandatory. Below, you can specify the correct label of each category in the language or languages defined in your project. On the left hand side, the labels in the default language are displayed. On the right hand side, the labels in the other languages are displayed. These are shown a language at a time; you can switch between languages by clicking its name at the top of the column. The current active language is shown underlined. Text you enter is automatically saved when you leave the input field.Category
Taxonomic ranks
On this page you can define which taxonomic ranks can be used in the project. Click the arrow next to a rank to add that rank to the selection used in this project. Currently selected ranks are shown on the right. To remove a rank from the selection, double click it in the list on the right. The uppermost rank, regio, is mandatory and cannot be deleted.By clicking “Select all the ranks used in Catalogue Of Life, marked in blue in the list below” all these ranks will be added to the project. After you have made the appropriate selection, click the save-button. Once you have saved the selection, you can click on “change the ranks' names and provide translations”.
In addition, you can specify where the distinction between the modules "higher taxa" and "species" will be. You can move the line by clicking the ↑ and ↓ arrows. The setting is saved when you click "save selected ranks".
Be advised that this division is different from the one that defines which taxa can be the end-point of your keys. That distinction is defined in the "dichotomous key" module. However, that distinction must be on the same level as the one you define here, or below it. It can never be higher up in the rank hierarchy.
