On pages that have been identified, (Plants, fungus, animals),
there will be a horizontal column showing the genetic lineage
of the species, this collumn can be found on the lower left
of it's page. At the top of this column, will be a link called
"Compare Species". Clicking this link will add the
species to your list. There is a maximum of 10 species
that you can add to your list.
View the video above for clearer instructions.
Once you have a few species added to your list, a row of images
appears at the top of every page, and now you can compare
them phylogenetically. This will create a miniature Tree
of Life that only has the branches leading to the families
of the species you've selected. This will enable you to see
their relations, and relatively how long ago they diverged
from one another. Click the View Tree of Life button
below the images.
Not every plant, fungus and animal page has been included
into this tree yet, we are still working on it. If you find
any that are missing, and you'd like to see in the database,
let us know.
