Show detail Hide detail

Canadian Aquatic Identification Centre : The Canadian Oceanographic Identification Centre (COIC) was established in 1967 as an aquatic, biological sorting and identification service through efforts of the Canadian Committee for the International Biological Programme. It was founded as a Section within the Zoology Division of the National Museum of Natural Sciences. It originally had four service units to serve the needs of research, management, survey and environmental protection agencies through Canada, including Marine Zooplankton; Marine Benthos; Freshwater and Microbiota units. The centre's services included: sorting biological collections; identification of aquatic, biological collections; helping to direct difficult collections or individual specimens to taxonomic specialists; identification of stomach contents of aquatic animals; providing shipping containers to send collections to Ottawa for sorting and identification services; and providing Summary Reports to analyze the data obtained from the service. The COIC was later renamed the Canadian Aquatic Identification Centre (CAIC).
