The Open Tree of Life is an on-line phylogenetic tree of life – a collaborative effort between 10 scientific institutes, funded by the NSF AVAToL #1208809.[2] The first draft, including 2.3 million species, was released in September 2015.[3]The Interactive graph allows the user to zoom in to taxomonial classifications, phylogeny, and information about a node. Clicking on a species will return it's source and reference taxomony.
