This step of the ARMS IJI workflow does the following: - Input: the output from the previous step (running a taxon check on the input species names using the WoRMS taxon checker); - Input: geographical locations for the sample(s) that those species were found at; - Check: using the WRIMS taxon match webservice to check the known distribution of the species; - Output: information about whether the species are alien or native to the location they were found at. It represents the Step 8 of the ARMS Workflow within the Internal Joint Initiative.

This step of the ARMS IJI workflow does the following: - Input: the OTU tables from the previous step (running the omics pipeline), containing taxa (usually genus or species names) obtained from the databases used by the pipeline; - Check: using the WoRMS taxon match webservice to check for the WoRMS match to those taxa; - Output: the WoRMS match (yes or not) and, if matched, the scientific name and aphiaID. It represents the Step 7 of the ARMS Workflow within the Internal Joint Initiative.
