An annotated taxonomic conspectus of the genus Coffea (Rubiaceae)

Summary Berendsohn, W. G.: A taxonomic information model for botanical databases: the IOPI Model. ϑ Taxon 46: 283-309. 1997. ϑ ISSN 0040-0262. A comprehensive information model for the recording of taxonomic data from literature and other sources is presented, which was devised for the Global Plant Checklist database project of the International Organisation of Plant Information (IOPI). The model is based on an approach using hierarchical decomposition of data areas into atomic data elements and ϑ in parallel ϑ abstraction into an entity relationship model. It encompasses taxa of all ranks, nothotaxa and hybrid formulae, "unnamed taxa", cultivars, full synonymy, misapplied names, basionyms, nomenclatural data, and differing taxonomic concepts (potential taxa) as well as alternative taxonomies to any extent desired. The model was developed together with related models using a CASE (Computer Aided Software Engineering) tool. It can help designers of biological information systems to avoid the widely made error of over-simplification of taxonomic data and the resulting loss in data accuracy and quality.

A taxonomic information model for botanical databases: the IOPI Model

One hundred and thirty-three names of Fissidens Hedw. (including Conomitrium Mont., Moenkemeyera C. Miill., and Simplicidens Herz.) are placed in the synonymy of 35 other names of Fissidens. Seventy-nine names are lectotypified. Neotypes are designated for F. amoenus C. Miill., F. distichellus Besch., F. oerstedianus C. Miill., F. pellucidus Hornsch., and F. serratus

Accelerating global access to plant diversity information

The Plant Names Project is a collaborative venture between the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, the Harvard University Herbaria, and the Australian National Herbarium. The Index kewensis, the Gray card index, and the Australian plant names index are being combined and the data edited to produce the International plant names index (IPNI). IPNI will consist of the names and associated basic bibliographical details of all seed plants. Its goal is to eliminate the need for finding and checking basic bibliographic information about plant names; such names will be presented in a distributed data base, freely available and with the data standardised against authority data and ultimately verified. IPNI will be a dynamic resource, globally current, continually improving in accuracy, and allowing, indeed encouraging, direct contributions by all members of the botanical community.
