There are 1513 species of Copepoda that are commonly found in the ICES North Atlantic.

Information on the COI barcoding status of these species is presented in the table below.
MODE
A		 All available COI barcodes for this taxa group (collected from any ocean and/or without geo-referencing):
  • Of the 1513 total species, 409 of these species (27%) have COI barcodes (from this or any ocean).
  • There are a total of 12811 "any ocean" COI barcode records available for this ocean and taxa group.
  • All available taxa group COI barcodes will be included in the Mode A downloads.
    • MODE
    B    		 Regional COI barcodes for this taxa group (includes only those collected in the ICES North Atlantic region):
  • Of the 1513 total species, 0 of these species (0%) have ICES North Atlantic-collected COI barcodes.
  • There are a total of 0 "ICES North Atlantic-collected" COI barcodes available for this taxa group.
  • In the map to the right, Red Stars show sampling locations of the COI barcodes in the Mode B download.
    • Uncoded
    Species    		 Of the 1513 total species in this region, 1104 species do not have any COI barcodes (from any region).
