| − | In the following we list (in alphabetical order) large scale aggregators of taxonomic information that either provide name matching services themselves or are indirectly accessible for name checking by means of a “lookup” aggregator.
| + | The content of this page has been moved and split into a page listing [[Taxonomic datasets]] and a list of [[Name matching services]]. |

| |
| − | In the context of TETTRIs, we distinguish three types of "Target aggregators", i.e. online databases of organism names that offer services for the use cases defined in the TETTRIs project: Primary and secondary target aggregators and Repositories ("Lookup target aggregators"). See [https://wiki.bgbm.org/tettris/Global_or_regional_aggregators] for details.
