The site, in 2006

A database of the names of animal, plant and other genera, from 1758 in zoology and 1753 in botany, arranged in one consistent hierarchy.

By July 2024 it held over 500,000 genus names. Its data feeds projects such as GBIF, Open Tree of Life and the Encyclopedia of Life.

In 2006: Started by Australian biologist and data manager Tony Rees at the CSIRO's marine research division.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
