In an age when biodiversity is being lost at an unprecedented rate,
it is vital that floristic and faunistic information is up to date,
reliable and easily accessible for the formulation of effective
conservation strategies. Electronic data management and
communication are transforming descriptive taxonomy radically,
enhancing both the collection and dissemination of crucial data on
biodiversity. This volume is written by scientists at the forefront
of current developments of floras and faunas, along with
specialists from applied user groups. The chapters review novel
methods of research, development and dissemination, which aim to
maximise the relevance and impact of data. Regional case studies
are used to illustrate the outputs and impacts of taxonomic
research. Integrated approaches are presented which have the
capacity to accelerate the production of floras and faunas and to
better serve the needs of a widening audience.
