Topic: Submarine goldfinch?
Hi all
Just looking at the page for Goldfinch (https://species.nbnatlas.org/species/NHMSYS0000530247)
Interested to see the following description brought in automatically.....
"Depth range based on 3 specimens in 1 taxon.
Water temperature and chemistry ranges based on 1 sample.
Environmental ranges
Depth range (m): 0 - 0
Temperature range (°C): 11.811 - 11.811
Nitrate (umol/L): 6.342 - 6.342
Salinity (PPS): 34.953 - 34.953
Oxygen (ml/l): 6.391 - 6.391
Phosphate (umol/l): 0.377 - 0.377
Silicate (umol/l): 3.584 - 3.584"
Now I'm not sure what the concentrate of nitrate in a Goldfinch is, but something tells me there might be a problem here.... ;)
Flippancy aside, the bottom of the box has a link to says "http://www.iobis.org/mapper/?taxon_id=740955" - which goes to the Ocean Biogeographic Information System. I presume something in the NBN system is incorrectly assigning this code 740955 ??
Hope this helps
