DOMAIN
EUKARYA
Pass your cursor over the Kingdoms above, then follow down through the classification to select at the species level.
|
|
|
|
| DIRECTIONS: Just place your cursor on one of the blue drop down menues above, and follow through the classification heirarchy to get to the individual genus and species of Race Rocks. Click on it to get to the videos and images we have been able to mount so far for that species. |

DOMAIN ARCHAEA
There probably won't be any of these at Race Rocks, but we would like to be proven wrong!
These are the extremophiles.

These files are provided as part of a collaborative effort by the students of Biology and Environmental Systems from Lester B. Pearson College of the Pacific.
Faculty members: Laura Verhegge and Catrin Brown.
Educational Director, racerocks.com: Garry Fletcher |
NEW
Curriulum applications.
|
Curriculum ideas for developing a taxonomy as part of "Ecosystem Structural analysis" are now part of the new OceanQuest resources. See this section on Biotic Structure of Ecosystems which provides curriculum materials. |

Please note: this taxonomy is based on a number of published schemes for classification. See the bottom of the taxalab page for links to several ways of classification of the organisms. Remember - taxonomic systems are Scientific Models, so they undergo continual change as new scientific information on the phylogeny of organisms is discovered. We welcome any suggestions for improvements of our identifications and classifications. |
| Taxonomy File Project for other Ecosystems |
This file gives a template for students who wish to do a project like our Taxalab assignment in other Ecosystems. A teacher's lesson plan is linked. |
