Abstract
New Developments and Future Vision of the Nomenclatural Database IPNI and the Taxonomic Database WCVP.
IPNI (International Plant Names Index) has been providing nomenclatural data in one form or another for the past 138 years. Over the past decade, great progress has been made in improving the data and making it accessible via a new website. We will be showcasing the new features that have...Govaerts, Rafaël ; Hartley, Helen ; Krieger, Jonathan ; Wrankmore, Emma

Demonstration of the New IPNI (International Plant Names Index) Registration System.
Registration systems have long been in place for names of plant cultivars, fungi, prokaryotes and animals, and more recently for algae (Müller et al. 2022). Yet, despite previous attempts, nothing has become established for vascular plants. The newly released International Plant Names Index (IPNI) registration system aims to address this....Wrankmore, Emma ; Krieger, Jonathan ; Govaerts, Rafaël ; Hartley, Helen

Abstract
Challenges of Integrating and Curating Nomenclatural and Taxonomic Data in the World Checklist of Vascular Plants.
The World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP) is the Royal Botanic Gardens (RBG) Kew’s global names and taxonomy output. The underlying data sources, the International Plant Names Index (IPNI), the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families (WCSP), and the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families – in Review (WCSP –...Turner, Robert ; Govaerts, Rafaël

Abstract
A Collective Effort to Update the Legume Checklist.
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 …
