This is a glossary of over 2,100 terms used in biological nomenclature - the naming of whole organisms of all kinds. The glossary is available in print-ready PDF format as well as via an online web application that can be browsed, searched, and output in HTML, JSON and RDF to support re-use and referencing. GBIF is also producing a limited number of paper copies of the glossary which will be available at GBIF-supported meetings and events. The web application supports the development of controlled vocabularies using resolvable identifiers for nomenclatural terms.<br><br>More information and links to the PDF and web versions can be found on the glossary home page at<br><br><a href="http://www.gbif.org/communications/resources/print-and-online-resources/bionomenclature/">http://www.gbif.org/communications/resources/print-and-online-resources/bionomenclature/</a><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.gbif.org/communications/resources/print-and-online-resources/bionomenclature/"></a>The web application is online at <a href="http://bionomenclature-glossary.gbif.org/">http://bionomenclature-glossary.gbif.org/</a><br><div><br></div><div>I'm happy to field comments on the implementation and pass on comments regarding the content to David Hawksworth.</div><div><br></div><div>Kind regards,</div><div>David Remsen</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;
