The CMarZ database will include dynamic summary presentations of taxonomic, morphological, ecological, biogeographical, and molecular information for selected zooplankton species. CMarZ is collecting information from expert taxonomists and para-taxonomists for use in preparing Species Pages. The following form is to be used to submit the information (data, images, video, references, links, etc) that will form the basis of each Species Page.

Please note: All information will be examined by a CMarZ Species Page editor, but it is the responsibility of the provider to confirm the accuracy and currency of all information. It is the expectation of CMarZ that only expert taxonomists or para-taxonomists will supply this information. If you are not a taxonomist or para-taxonomist but would like to contribute information for a CMarZ Species Page, please contact Nancy Copley (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Email ncopley@whoi.edu).

Thank you in advance for your participation in CMarZ!

Note: Images of living organisms, and photomicrographs and/or diagrams of diagnostic structures are particularly encouraged. After you fill in the form below, please email images, video, and/or diagrams of organism (with artist credit information) or relevant structures to: ann.bucklin@uconn.edu.

Please provide the following information in the boxes provided. For assistance, note the example provided to the right. View an example of a completed CMarZ Species Page.
