musical_furry_lobster

Includes all the features of version 3.5 but with several important bug fixes, and some major improvements behind the scenes to support renewing sponsorships. It is now possible to view occurrence maps (i.e. global distributions) of species and higher taxa, courtesy of GBIF: see the "occurrence" tab then you click on any node or leaf. If you have a set of your own images, it is now possible to easily modify your own docker image to show only those photos, and thus adorn the tree with your own bespoke pictures. Finally, the tree itself had been revised to take account of new changes in the phylogeny of Archaea, and now also includes the dodo and Rodrigues solitaire.

Sadly we cannot find any creative-commons images of the musical furry lobster.
