A list of provisional species names in use for fungi on iNaturalist * 1
    #28554022 - 11/23/23 12:54 PM (2 months, 3 days ago)

Provisional species names have revolutionized the way we communicate about undescribed fungal species - we now assign a provisional name to any fungus that has been DNA barcoded whose identity is not clear.  Many of these are new species - others are described species and can be given the correct scientific name as sequencing of the holotype or careful microscopy is performed.

iNaturalist now has 15,000 observations with provisional species names.  I wanted a good way to search through them so I did a csv export of these observations and loaded them into a Google doc.

The first sheet has all of the iNaturalist numbers and associated provisional species names, sorted alphabetically by provisional species name.

The second sheet has just the names with duplicates removed and counted.

This makes it easy to search for provisional names in use, and will also make it easy to see if there is a typo in one of them, or there two different spellings of what should be the same provisional name.

This data is a snapshot in time, but I can easily update it any time anyone would like me to.  Also I'd be happy to include different fields or display the data differently if someone would like.
