Dataset Card for TreeOfLife-200M

With nearly 214 million images representing 952,257 taxa across the tree of life, TreeOfLife-200M is the largest and most diverse public ML-ready dataset for computer vision models in biology at release. This dataset combines images and metadata from four core biodiversity data providers: Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), Encyclopedia of Life (EOL), BIOSCAN-5M, and FathomNet to more than double the number of unique taxa covered by TreeOfLife-10M, adding 50 million more images than BioTrove (and nearly triple the unique taxa). TreeOfLife-200M also increases image context diversity with museum specimen, camera trap, and citizen science images well-represented (see Image Types). Our rigorous curation process ensures each image has the most specific taxonomic label possible and that the overall dataset provides a well-rounded foundation for training BioCLIP 2 and future biology foundation models.

To avoid republishing existing datasets or interfering with original data source providers' ability to track use of their data, we provide all metadata here with step-by-step reproduction instructions in the GitHub repository to download the images and recreate the proper webdataset structure. This process will produce a collection of files named shard-######.tar in a train folder with which to work.

Inside each shard is a collection of images (named <uuid>.jpg), for which each has the following files:

<uuid>.com.txt
<uuid>.common_name.txt
<uuid>.jpg
<uuid>.sci.txt
<uuid>.sci_com.txt
<uuid>.scientific_name.txt
<uuid>.taxon.txt
<uuid>.taxonTag.txt
<uuid>.taxonTag_com.txt
<uuid>.taxon_com.txt
<uuid>.taxonomic_name.txt

Data Instances

Each image in this dataset is matched to the 7-rank Linnean taxonomy and common name of the subject of the image (where available). Examples of these text types is provided below. 89% (190,988,120) of the images have full taxonomic labels (for more context, see discussion on labeling challenges in biodiversity data under Considerations for Use). In addition to the biodiversity introduced (952,257 unique taxa), these images also span a variety of settings (or "images types"), the three main categories we highlight being museum specimen, camera trap, and citizen science images. Counts for these and more specific museum specimen subcategories (as used in processing) are provide in a table below.

Data Splits

This entire dataset was used for training the model. We used 11 biologically-relevant datasets for various species classification tests of the model trained on this dataset; they are described (briefly) and linked to below.

Test Sets

BioCLIP 2 was tested on the same 10 biologically-relevant benchmarks as BioCLIP, though we used NABirds in place of Birds 525, since the latter is no longer available online. We also curated IDLE-OO Camera Traps.

  • NABirds: 48K images of the 400 most common North American birds (based on observation counts), with at least 100 images per species. Includes age and sex annotations that we used for evaluation.
  • Meta-Album: Specifically, we used the Plankton, Insects, Insects 2, PlantNet, Fungi, PlantVillage, and Medicinal Leaf datasets.
  • Rare Species: Balanced benchmark dataset with 400 species (30 images per species) listed under 5 IUCN Red List categories (Near Threatened, Vulnerable, Endangered, Critically Endangered, and Extinct in the Wild).
  • IDLE-OO Camera Traps: A new benchmark we curated from a combination of 5 different LILA BC camera trap datasets with image-level labels. These were filtered to contain only images with a single species of animal in frame.

Additional hierarchical structure and embedding space evaluation was done using images of Darwin's Finches sourced from the training data (in metadata/Darwin-finches.csv). These species are not evenly represented in the dataset, so 12 of them have 50 images each, but the remaining six species (Geospiza propinqua, Geospiza acutirostris, Camarhynchus psittacula, Geospiza septentrionalis, Camarhynchus pauper, Camarhynchus heliobates) have between 8 and 33 representative images (listed in decreasing order).

Other non-species classification tasks were also used for testing, and are described in the BioCLIP 2 model card and our paper.

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

TreeOfLife-200M was curated for the purpose of training a biological foundation model. In particular, we aimed to increase the both the biodiversity of available training data (i.e., from that available in TreeOfLife-10M) and the raw number of images available (i.e., from that of BioTrove). We also performed extensive data curation beyond that used for either of these training datasets: aligning taxonomic labels, removing images of labels or folders associated to specimens, removing noisy citizen science and camera trap images, and ensuring no identifiable humans are in the images (more info below).

We have expanded coverage across the 2.14M described species estimated by The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as of March 2025, with particularly strong representation of threatened species (77.1% of species across threatened categories are represented in TreeOfLife-200M). This coverage and the implications are discussed in greater detail in our paper.

Source Data

TreeOfLife-200M is composed of images from the following four core data providers:

  1. Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), which is a major biological data aggregator cataloging biodiversity data from citizen science sources (e.g., iNaturalist), museum collections (e.g., from the Smithsonian Institution, Museum national d'Histoire naturelle), and camera trap collections (e.g., from the Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO)).
  • GBIF provides a DOI for the occurrence snapshot we downloaded (GBIF occurrence 2024-05-01 snapshot with filter "occurrenceStatus": "PRESENT" (DOI: https://doi.org/10.15468/dl.bfv433)).
  • This manifest was further filtered for only Still Images, those with gbifID and identifier, and those not labeled as images of text documents prior to download.
    • Note: there is only one category ("basisOfRecord": "MATERIAL_CITATION") that describes images of textual documents (these are a particular type of document that describes species).
  • Further filtereing and processing steps are described below.
  1. Encyclopedia of Life (EOL): Another large biological data aggregator (greatest source of biodiversity in TreeOfLife-10M).
  • EOL does not have a versioned release like GBIF, so recreating this dataset requires use of metadata/eol_metadata/media_manifest.csv and metadata/eol_metadata/taxon.tab (this is just if one wants to reproduce our process, the provided catalog and provenance parquets are sufficient to reproduce a copy of the dataset).
  • Images used for the Rare Species dataset were removed from this collection (by MD5) to avoid data leakage.
  • Further filtereing and processing steps are described below.
  1. BIOSCAN-5M: Collection of primarily insect specimen images, hand-labeled by experts. Other Arthropoda classes account for 2% of the 5M images. 93% of the images in the dataset are not labeled to the species level.
  • This dataset was ready to use, and we followed access instructions in their repository (specifically downloading through the Google Drive link).
  • The inclusion of this data just required aligning the taxon labels with those of the other datasets (following the Annotation Process, described below).
  1. FathomNet: Collection of expert-annotated images of undersea creatures; this dataset focuses on a habitat instead of a clade.
  • This dataset required fetching image metadata through their API to generate a manifest, then a second pass to fetch bounding boxes for each image.
  • From these, "concepts" were extracted and GNVerifier was utilized to obtain the relevant taxonomic information.
    • Extracted taxonomic information required alignment (as described in Annotation Process, below).
  • Focal species were retrieved from each image following download using distributed-downloader.
    • Images with multiple focal species had each extracted into its own image utilizing the bounding box annotations, hence the inclusion of a fathom_metadata CSV to fetch all images. The process is described, with specific instructions, in TreeOfLife-toolbox/docs/FathomNet_download_README.

Both BIOSCAN-5M and FathomNet were included to help improve coverage of under-represented and highly diverse branches of the tree of life (Insecta is one of the most diverse classes and creatures that dwell in the ocean are much less commonly represented). The total number of dataset-wide taxonomic hierarchies that are uniquely contributed by each core data provider is provided below, with their total number of images contributed to exemplify this point.

Provider Unique Taxa Images
GBIF 586,898 203.5M
EOL 48,748 5.3M
BIOSCAN-5M 2,900 5.2M
FathomNet 251 37.9K

Data Curation and Processing

During download (with distributed-downloader), each image's size is checked: first that it is sufficiently large (224 pixels or more on shortest side) and excluded if not, and then the image is resized, if necessary, so that its largest side does not exceed 720 pixels. A hash of both the original and the resized image is recorded, and the hash of the original image is compared across the dataset to avoid introducing duplicate images. The metadata is still recorded, so that no information is lost (images may be uploaded to one site with more or less information than to another).

The taxonmic alignment process, which was applied to all source data, is described below in Annotations. The remaining processing was focused on (1) ensuring image quality and (2) eliminating duplication and data leakage, and is described below.

1. Ensuring Image Quality

We noted the varied image types included in the GBIF snapshot, above. The three main types (musuem specimen, camera trap, and citizen science images) each require special filtering processes to avoid introducing noisy data.

Musuem specimen collections are often photographed with both specimens and their associated text documents (e.g., labels, folders, tags) under the same occurrence. All images under a single occurrence share metadata, there is no distinction for the subject of the image. These images of text were filtered through a nearest-centroid classifier spanning 25 fine-grained subtypes; 11 collection areas (Fungi, Insect, Invertebrate Zoology, Microbiology, Plant, Uncategorized, and five classes of Vertebrate Zoology: Amphibians, Birds, Fishes, Mammals, Others) inspired by the Smithsonian Institution's collection categories, each further subdivided to classes such as preserved or fossil specimen, as labed by GBIF basisOfRecord. We manually curate an 8.5K set of examples on which to fit the classifier, which predicts a subtype for all museum images. All non-organismal images are then removed.

Camera trap occurrences are first filtered to only those with 15 images or less. MegaDetector is then applied to each occurrence to distinguish those with animals in them from "empty" frames. We remove these to avoid labeling a creature's habitat as the creature, particularly since we are training a foundation model for the full tree of life, meaning that plants are of interest in their own right and should not be mislabeled as animals.

  • Context: Some occurrences include large-volume camera-trap sequences, with up to 10,000 images. These occurrences have a single taxonomic label applied across all images, though there are different taxa (e.g, the first few frames had a duck, while later images have a swan, another a goose, but the label for all is a duck). In these cases, Megadetector often misclassifies empty frames or detects animals that do not match the intended taxa, leading to false positives. To reduce the risk of introducing such noise while still capturing relevant biodiversity, we filter the dataset to include only occurrences with 15 images or fewer.

Finally, images within citizen science occurrences are tested for similarity, and the mean pair-wise BioCLIP embedding distance is used to determine whether they fall into one of three categories: (1) those that are overly distinct (this can happen when images of different species are uploaded to the same observation), (2) those that exhibit "expected" variation, and (3) those that are exceedingly similar (this can occur when images from a single camera trap are uploaded to one observation). The images in (1) are removed (bottom 5th percentile), those in (2) are retained, and those in (3) are run through the camera trap processing described above.

We run MTCNN on all images from GBIF and EOL to detect and remove images containing identifiable human faces. BIOSCAN-5M and FathomNet Database do not have images with human faces requiring filtering.

2. Eliminating Duplication and Data Leakage

As noted above, MD5 hashes are taken of every image on download. This are highly sensitive, in that variation by a single pixel will result in a different hash between two images. Thus, these are used for an initial filter across all images to avoid duplication and the introduction of test set images (e.g., those from Rare Species that were sourced from EOL) into the training data. The next step is to check for test images by metadata; however, this is not always viable, as existing benchmarks do not always retain the connection to their orignal source data in a manner allowing this. We thus take perceptual PDQ hashes of every test image and all images from GBIF and EOL (with Medium Source URL from Flickr--these methods are not effective on museum specimen images), removing those with distance less than 10 from the training data.

The code for all of these processing steps, along with further details, is provided in TreeOfLife-toolbox.

Annotations

We standardized the taxonomic labels provided by the four core data providers to conform to a uniform 7-rank Linnean structure.

Kingdom Counts

Kingdom Number of Images
Animalia 102591559
Plantae 101881537
Fungi 7556801
Chromista 530234
Protozoa 184809
Bacteria 59109
Viruses 8587
Archaea 70

Annotation process

Taxonomic labels (kingdom, phylum, etc.) were standardized across the various data sources using the TaxonoPy package that we designed (in consultation with taxonomists) for this purpose. The TaxonoPy algorithm works to match each unique taxonomic string to the GBIF Backbone, Catalogue of Life, and OpenTree hierarchies (in that order). See TaxonoPy for more details on this process.

Who are the annotators?

TBA

Personal and Sensitive Information

None: These images come from existing, public biodiversity data repositories, and no GPS locations for the species in the images are included. We further used MTCNN on all images downloaded from GBIF and EOL to filter out identifiable images of people. There are no images with people in the BIOSCAN-5M or FathomNet Database to filter.

Considerations for Using the Data

We hope this dataset (and the model trained with it) can aid in conservation efforts and biodiversity research.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

This dataset is imbalanced in its representation of various species with the greatest representation available for those in the phyla Tracheophyta, Arthropoda, and Chordata. The long-tailed distribution exhibited by taxonomic rank is to be expected working with biodiversity data, and results from both an imbalance in the availability of images and actual variance in class diversity. For instance, TreeOfLife-200M has a balanced representation between plants and animals (at the kingdom level), but animals represent a larger proportion of described species. Additionally, IUCN estimates 2,139,242 described species as of March 2025, the vast majority of which are invertebrates. Though described invertebrates outnumber vertebrates 20 to one, more than double the number of vertebrates have been evaluated (64K vertebrates to only 29K invertebrates) due to lack of available information.

Graph displaying counts for most represented taxonomic classes, emphasizes imbalance

Overall, 89% of images have full taxonomic labels. As discussed above, most of this gap is more indicative of the lack of consensus or available granularity in labeling, rather than missing information. BIOSCAN-5M is a good example of this, as the label granularity is still limited for insects (Insecta, one of the most diverse classes in the tree of life). In our resolved taxa for BIOSCAN-5M, 95.97% of images are labeled to the family level but only 30.78% and 6.81% of the images have genus or species indicated, respectively. This is a persistent challenge in species identification and part of the reason that large biological foundation models trained with taxonomic hierachies are useful. We highlight these taxonomic coverage limitations for a better understanding of both the data and our motivation, but do not wish to diminish the impact of our coverage of nearly 868K unique taxa labeled to the level of species; it far surpasses the species diversity of other well-known biological datasets.

We note also that our taxonomic resolution (TaxonoPy) resulted in less than 1% unresolved cases, e.g., Metazoa instead of Animalia or incertae sedis for kingdom:

Unresolved Kingdom Number of Images
incertae sedis 1060535
Archaeplastida 33923
Metazoa 24858
NULL 5253

Recommendations

It is always important to understand the data with which one is working and take each dataset's uniqueness into account. Some considerations for TreeOfLife-200M:

  • If using this dataset as more than just a training dataset (i.e., for validation or testing) be sure to keep source_id distinct across splits.
    • In these circumstances, it would also good to keep in mind that this dataset has a long-tail distribution (as one would expect from biological data).
  • As noted above, there are some unresolved/misaligned kingdoms. Depending on one's use-case, these may be dropped or another attempt at re-alignment might be made (for instance with an updated version of TaxonoPy, as we intend to add profiles to address these outliers).
