images

This demo shows compares existing images for taxa in ALA with images that are available from the Biodiversity Literature Repository (BLR). Images in the BLR are extracted from the recent taxonomic literature, and maybe the only source of imagery for newly described species. The demo is "live" in that all results are generated by querying Ozymandias.

Examples

Feel free to try other examples, but remember that (for the purposes of this demo) the taxon name must be for an animal in AFD, and the name must be exactly as in the corresponding ALA page. This is because all the data comes from Ozymandias (which uses data from AFD), and the demo doesn't do approximate search matching like the ALA website itself, it simply takes the taxon name as given and searches on that.
