[Taxacom] How far are we to completing a world genus/species listing for animals

[Stephen Thorpe]

>How far are we to completing a world genus/species listing for animals?


An interesting question out of the blue!

Well, it can only ever be made up-to-date, of course, never "complete"

With so many more or less independent initiatives all working in parallel, I 
wonder who you mean by "we"?

I can only speak for Wikispecies, and even then I can only say that progress is 
rapid, but I have no exact idea how far we are from up-to-date ...

why do you ask?

Stephen
