GTDB
id: s__Kamptonema formosum · GTDB R232
Exact taxid. Linked by NCBI taxid — GTDB records the same id NCBI does.
d__Bacteria;p__Cyanobacteriota;c__Cyanobacteriia;o__Cyanobacteriales;f__Microcoleaceae;g__Kamptonema;s__Kamptonema formosum
Only 1 genome — below the threshold for detecting a split, so “current” here means unverified, not confirmed.
Renamed: GTDB gives this taxon a different name in R207, R214, R220, R226, R232.
SILVA
No record in SILVA 138.2.
Greengenes2
No record in Greengenes2 2024.09.
eHOMD
Release 4.2No record in eHOMD 4.2.
Each panel shows one release. Switch a release to see how that database's answer changes — the taxon is held fixed by NCBI taxid, so every panel describes the same organism. Each panel also says how it was linked; how the databases are joined explains the routes.

Each column is the release its box shows. marks the first rank at which a database's name differs from NCBI's, by exact text; a suffix such as _A counts. SILVA's path and eHOMD's columns end at genus, so their species row is blank; the box above names the species. Levels a source labels outside these seven ranks are in the API's ranks and not drawn here.
