I have just been attempting to create some example DwC data and cannot find terms for "year of publication" and "year on publication". Do they exist?

There is no separate atomized term for the year of the publication. It is assumed to be within the full citation in the namePublishedIn term (http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/index.htm#namePublishedIn).

yes, not always easy to parse those things! although, its not always easy to parse year strings either, eg 'end of 1998'.
we could just use Dublin Core date - then it would only be a matter of usage guidelines.
Also, what was the justification for combining nomenclature and taxonomic data together into the one dwc:Taxon class?

I think it makes sense to combine them, because there is so much overlap. Both are much more similar to each other than either is to, say, specimens, literature, or geography.
Aloha, Rich
Ok. That was my assumption. Some people are a bit picky about it though. But fine by me.

For picky people it shouldn't really matter as the association with the class Taxon is a loose one, made only via the organizedInClass attribute - in rdf:
dwcattributes:organizedInClass rdf:resource="http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/Taxon"/
