I was thinking is there anyway to get the species name list from a blast db, I saw they are binary files.
I found this:
blastdbcmd -db [db name] -info, but actually I don't have the blastdbcmd installed on our server.
Any thoughts? Cheers,

Here is what I tried on blastdbcmd, no species name found anyway.
Database: Kog
4,825 sequences; 2,336,026 total residues
Date: Jun 2, 2009 10:24 AM Longest sequence: 5,019 residues
Volumes:
/usr/local/agrf/data/ncbi-blast/linked_databases/Kog
