EcoAnalysts is the Big Kahuna of Bug labs. They do work all over the world and have expertise in many areas of taxonomy.  Their production taxonomists are educated to the Master's Level, and they employ one of the world's Foremost systemetist of freshwater Crusteaca. They frequently sponsor events to help other laboratories improve their performance. They also sponsor meetings for monitoring scientists to share their findings with other scientist. 

They recently completed work on a state-of-the-art Laboratory information system that allows them to track samples and data more effiecently. Ultimately, they intend to allow clients password-protected online access to their data-warehouse. This will allow clients to make make graphs online, and to retrieve back up data if theirs becomes lost or damaged.

This laboratory is more costly than some of the others. They have the strictest quality controls I know of. Their turn arround time cannot be beat-if your samples cannot fit in to the regular schedule, they can (at a cost) employ an extra shift of workers to complete your work faster than anyone else i know of.

I understand this is a delicate subject. Rhithron, you can have your Quality Systems Officer contact me to discuss your rating status.  After I am assured that there have been improvements in procedure, I may raise your rating. Unlike movie reviewers, reveiwers of laboratories must consider that improvements in procedure can be made, whereas a film is a static production. This rating system must remain dynamic and be able to account for both improvements and declines in performance. My last professional interaction directly with Rhithron was several years ago.
