I love to see how massive Arthropoda are compared to Tetrapods (what humans are).

And that’s including anthropocentric species discovery bias.

Make sure to check out LifeMap external url where it is available. Chosen taxon will be found in another tree-exploration tool, which is more fine-grained and is more suitable for exploring small branches and closest neighbors of chosen taxon in terms of hierarchy.

Thank you. I've been looking for this exact thing but could not find a good example

You're welcome. There are very few large graph visualizations out there in the web, because there is a lack of software tools for such stuff.
