Taxonomic names are critical to the communication of biodiversity—they link data together whether it be distribution data, traits or phylogeny. Large taxonomic groups, such as many plant families, are globally distributed as is the taxonomic expertise of the family. A growing knowledge base requires collaboration to develop an up-to-date checklist...Le Roux, Marianne ; Döring, Markus ; Bruneau, Anne ; Miller, Joe ; Govaerts, Rafaël …
