Phylolink is a research collaboration toolkit through which biodiversity can be explored from a phylogenetic perspective. It is an update of PhyloJiVE that has been integrated into the framework of the Atlas of Living Australia, including its spatial portal. Phylolink connects phylogenetic tree nodes with species occurrence records, environmental data, and species trait information. Features new to Phylolink allow users to upload and download spatial datasets, store files and link to the ALA spatial portal, improve graphics and provide the novel ability to analyze environmental attributes of species and clades distributions. Species richness and phylogenetic diversity comparisons can be made among geographic areas. The result is a powerful way of combining data to generate flexible and customizable visualizations, profiles and metrics for biodiversity.
