TaxonHistory
From Species File Help
tblTaxonHistory contains history of concepts and nomenclature for protonyms added in version 4.0.
- TaxonHistoryID, integer, 4 bytes, primary key, identifier for taxon name and concept.
- TaxonNameID, integer, 4 bytes, = tblTaxon.TaxonNameID, identifier for the monomial name (protonym) associated with the history.
- SeqNum, integer, 2 bytes, sequence number within this TaxonNameID, 1-based values without gaps.
- NomenclatorID, integer, 4 bytes, = tblNomenclator.NomenclatorID, identifier for binomial name associated with the history.
- CiteRefID, integer, 4 bytes, = tblRefs.RefID, identifier for the reference that defined the nomenclatural or concept change. May = 0 if change comes from other source explained in note or if the reference has not been identified.
- NewNameStatus, integer, 1 byte, status of name when changed
- 0 = unspecified
- 1 = unchanged
- 2 = new taxon name
- 3 = made a synonym
- 4 = made valid or temporary
- 5 = new combination
- 6 = name deleted with no related name
- 7 = name deleted because of duplicate protonym, related name can be found in tblRelatedHistory
- 8 = genus or species lowered to nominotypical sub
- 9 = nominotypical sub raised to genus or species
- 10 = name replaced by nominotypical sub
- 11 = new nominotypical sub
- ConceptChange, integer, 1 byte, values in effect on completion of the change, permitted values:
- 0 = unspecified
- 1 = unchanged
- 2 = new
- 3 = restored
- 4 = expanded
- 5 = shrunk
- 6 = modified
- 7 = terminated
- 8 = transferred
- OtherHistoryID, integer, 4 bytes, = tblTaxonHistory.TaxonHistoryID, identifier for the other history ID involved in a relationship change specified in RelatedHistoryID
- RelatedHistoryID, integer, 2 bytes, = tblRelatedHistory.RelatedHistoryID, identifier for the type of relationship to OtherHistoryID
- UserConfirmed, bit, 1 = user has confirmed data in this row or generated from user supplied data in tblCites
- UnreliableAssumption, bit, 1 = program used an unreliable assumption to create row
- ArbitraryRow, bit, 1 = arbitrary row generated by program to resolve conflict, user resolution needed
- Note, text, 300 bytes maximum. When Status is set = 2, values for NomenclatorID and CiteRefID are set = 0, but those items are expanded to text in this column. When Status is set = 3, the domain name of the split out species file is placed in this column.
- LastUpdate, smalldatetime, date and time row last changed
- ModifiedBy, integer, 2 bytes, UserID of the signon that made the change
- Status, integer, 1 byte, status of the row
- 0 = active
- 1 = dormant, used for deleted nominotypiical subs, which might be re-instated at a later time
- 2 = artifact, used for rows erroneously added. The row cannot be deleted once TaxonHistoryID has been exposed in an LSID or other GUID for a taxon concept.
- 3 = moved to other species file identified in Note
- 4 = moved out of scope
