세계해양생물종보존협회(WoRMS)가 3월 19일 세계 분류학자의 감사의 날을 맞아 지난 한 해 동안 연구자들이 기술한 해양생물 상위 10종의 연례 목록을 다시 발표했습니다!
분류학자들이 하는 모든 일을 기념하는 이 행사에 대해 잘 몰랐다면 여기와 여기에서 자세한 내용을 확인할 수 있습니다.
Every day in labs, museums, and out on fieldwork, taxonomists are busy collecting, cataloguing, identifying, comparing, describing, and naming species new to science. Over 300 taxonomists globally also contribute their valuable time to keeping the World Register of Marine Species up to date. Today is a chance for us at WoRMS to thank our taxonomic editors for this important task. We celebrate the work of taxonomists now with the WoRMS list of the top-ten marine species described in 2023 as nominated and voted for by taxonomists, journal editors and WoRMS users!
This top-ten list is just a small highlight of about 2,000 fascinating new marine species discovered every year (there were almost 2000 marine species described in 2023 and added to WoRMS, including some 330 fossil species).
종은 어떻게 선택되었습니까?
A call for nominations was announced in 12월 2023, sent to all editors of WoRMS and editors of major taxonomy journals, and posted openly on the WoRMS website and social media so anyone had the opportunity to nominate their favorite marine species. Nominated species must have been described between 1월 1st and 12월 31st, 2023, and have come from the marine environment (including fossil taxa). A small committee of volunteers (including both taxonomists and data managers) was brought together to decide upon the final candidates. The list is in no hierarchical order.
The final decisions reflect the immense diversity of taxonomic groups in the marine environment (including crustaceans, corals, sponges, jellies and worms) and highlight some of the challenges facing the marine environment today. The final candidates also feature some particularly astonishing marine creatures, notable for their interest to both science and the public.
Each of these marine species has a story. This year the chosen species cover the weird, the bewildering and the astonishing! We feature, amongst others, a beautifully colored nemertean, a carnivorous sponge, and a giant extinct penguin.

After 250 years of describing, naming and cataloguing the species we share our planet with, we are still some way off from achieving a complete census. However, we do know that at least 245,000 marine species have been described because their names are managed in WoRMS by more than 300 scientists located all over the world.
2018년에는 WoRMS의 10주년을 기념하여 매년 새롭게 발견되는 수많은 해양 생물에 대한 흥미로운 발견을 강조하기 위해 2017년과 지난 10년간 가장 많이 발견한 해양 생물 목록을 작성했습니다( http://www.lifewatch.be/en/2018.04.23-WoRMS-LifeWatch-press-release 참조).
We decided to continue this process every year as a celebration of the work that taxonomists do and of the fascinating marine species that are discovered each year. Our previous lists of the top-ten marine species described for the decade 2007–2017, for 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 can be found here:

Between 2008 and 2018, SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry (ESF) compiled an annual list of the ‘Top Ten Species’ described from ALL habitats and taxa. The oceans cover over 70% of the surface of our planet, and yet they still include the least explored regions. Although the ESF list often contained one or two marine species, we decided to pay homage to the ‘largest habitat on earth’ by producing our own list of the top marine species.

The WoRMS Top Ten Marine Species 2023 would not have been possible without the collaboration between the WoRMS Data Management Team (DMT), the WoRMS Top Ten Decision Committee, the WoRMS Steering Committee (SC) and voluntary contributions by many of the WoRMS editors.
DMT의 작업과 많은 WoRMS-DMT 관련 활동은 생물다양성 및 생태계 연구를 위한 E-Science 유럽 라이프워치 인프라의 일부인 라이프워치 벨기에의 지원을 받고 있습니다. LifeWatch는 분산형 가상 실험실로, 생물다양성 연구의 다양한 측면에 사용됩니다. LifeWatch의 종 정보 백본은 분류학 및 종 관련 데이터를 통합하고 지식의 격차를 메우는 것을 목표로 합니다. 또한, 분류학 전문가들에게 콘텐츠 확장 및 분류학 데이터베이스의 품질 향상과 관련된 회의 및 워크숍 개최를 위한 물류 및 재정적 지원을 제공함으로써 분류학 전문가들을 지원합니다.
