With the inclusion of more higher ranks and most datasets still not providing the new ranks, we've been getting a lot of questions about why most of the Catalogue is "missing" or is in the Not assigned groups.

  2. When clicking on Not assigned group links in both the ChecklistBank and portal, the user should get an explanation of what Not assigned means and why taxa fall under that group. Currently if the user clicks on a Not assigned group (the circled link below) in the Portal or ChecklistBank, they get a 404 error:
