Resumen

CCAMLR hosts a list of taxa based on the  Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Information System (ASFIS) List of Species for Fishery Statistics Purposes published by the FAO.The species names used in CCAMLR need to be up to date with current classification and phylogenies. The World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS - www.marinespecies.org) is managed by taxonomic and thematic experts to provide an authoritative and comprehensive taxonomic classification for all taxa. Inconsistencies between  the CCAMLR taxon list with the most recent ASFIS list and WoRMS were identified.  The Secretariat proposes the use  of WoRMS as a taxonomic reference within the CCAMLR taxon list to address taxonomic inconsistencies within the CCAMLR Master Data Programme.
