[Taxacom] taxonomic names databases

[Tony Rees]

Hi Stephen,

That's a nice site and may prove useful to chase down the species in that
genus one by one, and possibly more... however with 260,000 LepIndex names
in Cat. of Life (and therefore IRMNG) from 2006, and potentially more to be
found in the current CoL version, the thought of anyone having to sort
these out one by one does really thrill me... (plus as is usual with such
"personal interest" projects, the creator of that site warns about its
dynamic nature as a citable resource, data limitations, etc.). So if
LepIndex does not fill the niche (as a block of expert reviewed, re-usable
content), I wonder what does...

Regards - Tony
