Correctly identified species Agreement between the taxonomist and BOLD at the species level
Probable correctly identified species Agreement between the taxonomist morphospecies and the species suggested by BOLD (the genus matched and probable species)
Incorrect identification Disagreement between the taxonomist and BOLD (the genus or species did not match)
