I would like to find a data source which gives full taxonomic data for all living things.
For vascular plants, I have found the World Check List of Vascular Plants (WCVP) to be ideal. If there was something like this but for all living things it would be almost exactly what I want.
The WCVP has the concept of ‘Accepted’. I imagine this is not something which is available for all areas of the tree of life but on the other hand I hope that the same or similar concept is built into some data source relating to the full tree of life.
If there is not a simple single answer to this question I would very much welcome some advice as to how I can approximate towards the WCVP situation of knowing which names are more ‘accepted’ and which are not.
I am interested in all names especially if there is information relating to their current status as accepted or not.
