IGB has a file called species.txt that contains the species name, the common name and any other synonym for that species in a tab delimited format. These are all of the species that IGB will recognize; not all of them appear in the Data Access > Choose:(species) Current Genome > Species drop down menu because not all of them have a publicly accessible genome data set. However, if you enter your own data set, IGB will recognize the Latin and common names. If there is a species that you would like added to this list, please let us know as a New Feature on Sourceforge
