An online reference for "the" galvanic series likely would not be of
any practical utility. A galvanic series is dependent on the
composition of the media in contact with the metals in the series
and on the temperature as well.

One might start with a college text on corrosion and/or ASTM G82-98:
Standard Guide for Development and Use of a Galvanic Series for
Predicting Galvanic Corrosion Performance or some equivalent
standard testing document.
