In our projects we make extensive use of identificationRemarks, for example:

Identification based on the RDP classifier at the confidence level 0.8: taxonomy Eukaryota;Chordata;Actinopteri;Albuliformes;Albulidae;Albula;Albula_glossodonta, confidences 1;1;1;1;1;1;0.92. Confirmation with VSEARCH against the 16S_ncbi_euk_1_50000_pga database at 0.97 similarity: hits KF681807,X99179,AY857934,NC_082992, identities 100,97.9,97.9,97.5, taxonomy Albula_glossodonta,Albula_vulpes,Albula_vulpes,Albula_vulpes, consensus Eukaryota;Chordata;Actinopteri;Albuliformes;Albulidae;Albula;Albula_vulpes.
