Tree of Life Explorer

The design is based on the pythagoras tree; beside a default spiral design there are other options, such as polytomy.[6][7]

Leaves and nodes provide links to other websites, such as Wikipedia, Encyclopedia of Life or the NCBI taxonomy browser. The leaves representing single species are colour-coded according to their IUCN extinction risk, with red indicating a threatened species, black representing a recently extinct species, and grey representing species with unknown extinction risk.[1]
