Hi,

I am trying to create a list where the ordered list numbering expands
across sub-headings:

* Bacteria
** Acetobacter Species
1. Acetobacter aceti
2. Acetobacter rasens

* Fungi
** Candida Species
3. Candida famata
4. Candida firmetaria

* Others Unidentified Species
5. Escherichia species
6. Serratia species
7. Citrobacter species
8. Klebsiella species
9. Bacillus species


 How can one sort the ordered list alphabetically?

 Appreciate any input. Thanks

Cheers,
/z

There is no ready-to-use command. You may need to write one yourself.
Note that you can tell Org mode to start lists from number other than 1
like

3. [@3] foo
4. bar
