See [pdf](pdf/) for more information. Details based on description provided by Bächli in January 2024. The TaxoDros Index includes 12 files. With the exception of SYST.TEXT all files are strict size-limited (72 Chars, some lines with continuations in DROS5.TEXT). The font used is Monaco, a fix-length font on Mac, which in a text editor makes the data looking (pseudo)tabellaric. The following information is important to understand the individual files. ### ALLORTE.TEXT This file includes all collection sites in alphabetical order, with geographic coordinates, first geographic longitude, then geographic latitude („-„ at the end means rather exact data) und die Swiss coordinates [This is used for Swiss Topo maps], followed by the (abbreviated) name of the country. The abbreviations are explained and expanded in KEYWORDS.TEXT and used in Taxodros online. ### ASHBURN.TEXT This text-file containes the names of the journals: *s = abbreviation of names used in DROS5.TEXT *u = full (formal) names of journals ### DROS3.TEXT This text-file includes the descriptors (keywords) used for each source. Each segment has two tags: .TEXT; and .DESC;. The tag .TEXT; includes first the source identification and may be followed by collecting localities (each beginning with =e=…). The tag .DESC; is followed by the “short name” of the taxon (always in first place) followed by the descriptors (key words), The keywords used are explained in KEYWORDS.TEXT. With the exception of the tags, all the following lines are in lower case. Addional “short names” can follow in each segment, in case that the keywords also apply. The keyword “descr” is also used in connection with the keywords fig, egg, larv, pup. Multiple segments are used for each source, when needed. Example (copy of two segments in DROS3.TEXT): .TEXT; tag acurio et al., 2013 (source identification) =e=san jose beach (collection site) .DESC; tag machalilla (“short name”) descr keyword, followed by additional descriptors) fig malex malin femex femin typemat typeloc loc distr$ Ecuador country of collections site comp affil taxon phyl egg pup biol .TEXT; tag acurio et al., 2013 (source information) .DESC; tag atalaia-gr (“short name“) descr (keyword) taxaincl (keyword) affil (keyword) taxon (keyword) phyl (keyword) ### DROS5.TEXT This text-file contains segments with the bibliographic details for each source of information. Each segment begins with the tag .TEXT; strictly followed by the following tags: .A , .J , .S , .Z or .Z., .K , .P . All tags are fix length (max. 72 chars), excepting the tags .A and .S which may have consecutive lines without new tags. The following is important: * There is only one segment for each source of information. * Excepting the source identification (in lowercase), all tags may contain text with the usual capitalization. * The lines “source identification” in DROS3.TEXT and DROS5.TEXT are in exact match, connecting the two files. Explanation of the tags used within each segment: .TEXT; Segment delimiter .A source identification .J year of publication .S title .Z Journal name (abbreviated), volume(issue):first page-last page or .Z. for Books: editor etc. .K comments: library codes, pdf quality, DOI .P name of respective pdf, if available Example: (copy of segment in DROS5.TEXT) .TEXT; acurio et al., 2013 .A Acurio, A., Rafael, V., Cespedes, D., and Ruiz, A., .J 2013 .S Description of a New Spotted Wing Drosophila (Diptera: Drosophilidae) Species and Its Evolutionary Relationships Inferred by a Cladistic Analysis of Morphological Traits. .Z Ann. ent. Soc. Am., 106:1-11. .K ocr++ / DOI:10.1603.AN13028 .P Acurio et al., 2013 ### KEYWORDS.TEXT This text-file includes the descriptors (keywords) used in DROS3.TEXT and the (abbreviated) names of countries used in ALLORTE.TEXT and DROS5.TEXT, all used in online TAXODROS. ### SPECIES-List_GE_SG In this text-file, all taxon names (short names, epithets) are listed with their affiliation to genus and subgenus. ### SPECIES-List_GR_SG In this text-file, all taxon names (short names, epithets) are listed with their affiliation to genus, subgenus, specie-groups and specie-subgroups. ### SPECIES-List_GR_SR_SC In this text-file, all taxon names (short names, epithets) are listed with their affiliation to genus, subgenus, species-group, species-subgroup and species-complex. ### SYST.TEXT This is a XLS-file in text/tab format. It includes all systematic relationships, including comments on synonymy and homonymy, etc., with tags for sorting. Some tags: .KF “short name“, used in DROS3.TEXT. So called homonyms are separated by nummers and uniquely identified. Additional tags refer the affiliation with family, subfamily, etc, where applicable. .VN the currently accepted name (taxonomy). .FU the original form of the name, with author(s), etc.,. .OR the original generic affiliation of the name .AU the original source to link with DROS5.TEXT ### SYST.QE.TEXT This is a text-file, actually an exact copy of the file SYST.TEXT without connection with xls. ### TAXA-LIST This text-file lists all “short names” with actual genus affiliation and author(s) combination. ### TAXODROS The link [https://www.taxodros.uzh.ch](https://www.taxodros.uzh.ch) allows search with keywords, search for distribution and contains lists for taxonomic overviews.
