I recently learned of the project called “Encyclopedia of Life“, which endeavors to create an online encyclopedia featuring every known life form on Earth. From what I can see, this is going to be done in an open access manner.
Sample pages exist for the following organisms:
Death Cap Mushroom (Amanita Phalloides)
Rice (Oryza Sativa)
Yeti Crab (Kiwa Hirsuta)
and come in three flavors
Polar Bear (Ursus Maritimus) : Novice Users
Polar Bear (Ursus Maritimus) : Expert Users
Polar Bear (Ursus Maritimus) : Biodiversity Heritage Library
I can’t wait!
