Every species from the previous steps lands here as its own row, ready for a final pass before you publish.

Click a step below to see it highlighted in the screenshot.

  1. 1

    Review species

    Work through the checklist row by row, starting wherever you like.

  2. 2

    Verify with evidence

    Confirm each species actually belongs by checking the occurrence map and source counts behind it.

  3. 3

    Review flagged taxonomy issues

    Resolve any row flagged as a synonym or an authority conflict.

  4. 4

    Communicate with collaborators

    Leave a comment on the row, tagging a collaborator with @ or a species with # when something needs a second opinion.

  5. 5

    Resolve every row

    Accept, reject, or merge each one until nothing is left in Needs Review.

See the full walkthrough, including taxonomy resolution and merging duplicates, in Features → Workbench.
