Source attestations

Each upstream vocabulary's own account of this habitat. Assertion counts are per-source units and are not comparable across sources — GOLD counts organisms, BacDive strains, PREGO taxa.

Curation

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

  1. CONFIRM_UNGROUNDED 2026-08-21 · codex-gpt-5

    Confirmed UNGROUNDED: no ontology term fits this concept. NCBITaxon:2864 'Dinophyceae' kept as an xref. Non-habitat screen review (#108): Host-associated > Protists > Dinoflagellates denotes dinoflagellates acting as microbial hosts. The organism is the habitat concept; the taxon term remains an xref rather than becoming the record identity. (source concept habitatmech:GOLD.94019ddb33)

  2. SAME_AS 2026-08-31 · claude-opus-5

    Merged into habitatmech:GOLD.94019ddb33 'Dinoflagellates': the same concept under another source's name. Novel-concept merge (#161): 'Host-associated > Algae > Dinoflagellates' and 'Host-associated > Protists > Dinoflagellates' are one concept filed under two GOLD branches - dinoflagellates are protists and are also counted among the algae. Both records already carried the SAME target, NCBITaxon:2864 'Dinophyceae', with near-identical #108 notes, which is the signature of a duplicate rather than a path-distinguished leaf. The Protists path survives because Dinophyceae is a protist clade and 'Algae' is an informal grouping. Merging does not erase the branch distinction: both source paths remain as separate attestations. Both sides are ORGANISM, so the counts are commensurable here - that is a fact about this pair, not a licence to sum across units elsewhere. (source concept habitatmech:GOLD.699bcb6fd7)

  3. SAME_AS 2026-09-07 · codex-gpt-5

    Merged into habitatmech:GOLD.94019ddb33 'Dinoflagellates': the same concept under another source's name. Zero-count duplicate review (#258): GOLD's Host-associated > Microbial > Dinoflagellates path has the same leaf label and host-as-dinoflagellate meaning as the reviewed Host-associated > Protists > Dinoflagellates and Host-associated > Algae > Dinoflagellates pair merged in #218. Merge it into the asserted Protists-path record so its source path survives as a separate attestation without publishing a second Dinoflagellates identity. (source concept habitatmech:GOLD.e9d0a5a093)

  4. DEFINED 2026-09-07 · codex-gpt-5

    Defined as 'dinoflagellate-associated environment' under ENVO:01001000 'environmental system determined by an organism'. Definition curated from existing item-level #108 and #161 decisions plus the committed alga- and microbe-associated reports; no new paid research was commissioned. GOLD files the asserted Dinoflagellates host paths under both Protists and Algae, with a zero-count duplicate under Microbial merged by #258; all three denote a dinoflagellate host as a microbial habitat. ENVO has no dinoflagellate-, protist-, alga-, or microbe-associated environment, so ENVO:01001000 is the tightest existing ontology parent and NCBITaxon:2864 remains an xref rather than the habitat identity.
