Curation

What a curator decided about this record, and why. A record built from several source concepts can carry one decision per concept.

CONFIRM_UNGROUNDED 2026-08-26 · claude-opus-5
Confirmed UNGROUNDED: no ontology term fits this concept. NCBITaxon:9608 'Canidae' kept as an xref. Host-taxon reversal (#114) reaching the last members of its own family (#194): this was NOT_APPLICABLE, which asserts the source concept is not a habitat. An organism acting as a host IS a habitat, and the corpus already says so for bovine, caprine, equid, leporid and suid, all minted with ENVO:01001002 'animal-associated environment' as parent and the organism term as an xref. Never curated on the question at all: the NOT_APPLICABLE was the seeder's automatic bacdive_non_habitat_target route firing on an NCBITaxon target, and #114's sweep did not reach this row. The taxon term is not the identity - a family is a class of organisms, not a place - so it stays an xref (#99) and the concept keeps its minted identity with a term request. Category HOST_ASSOCIATED: the host is living. (source concept habitatmech:BACDIVE.33fde10528)
DEFINED 2026-08-26 · claude-opus-5
Defined as 'canid-associated environment' under ENVO:01001002 'animal-associated environment'. Definition follows the established <clade>-associated environment family for BacDive host buckets, whose naming rule the corpus already fixes: a -inae source label yields -ine (Bovinae-Cow,-Cattle -> bovine) and a -idae source label yields -id (Equidae-Horse -> equid, Leporidae-Rabbit/Hare -> leporid, Suidae-Pig,Swine -> suid). No deep-research run was commissioned: the genus, the wording pattern and the near-miss reasoning are already settled by those five siblings and by NCBITaxon, so a billed report would add nothing this slice turns on. Worded like the equid sibling because the source label names one vernacular host inside a wider family: NCBITaxon:9608 'Canidae' also covers foxes, wolves and jackals, so the definition must not silently narrow to the dog.
