You will see this displayed when you click on the Quick Help Tab while you are looking at the Taxonomy Pane. See below for further explanations.

Things to note

Navigating the taxonomy takes some getting used to. Resizing of the tree is accomplished by the buttons on the lower right, and moving the tree up and down in the window is done by click-hold-drag.

Clicking on a node will collapse the subtree, which can be confusing at first.

The taxonomy, in contrast to a true species tree or a gene tree, can have multifurcating nodes.
