Subject: [itpmods:14140] Which database to follow?
To: itpmods <[email protected]>
While following different databases for last few years, I have seen totally
different taxonomic treatments in these: Kew Database (Plants of The World
Online), World Flora Online (replacement for TPL) and Catalogue of Life
(April 2020 Beta version).
I have mostly been following the Catalogue of Life, but while
preparing the list of species reported from India, I noticed that several
species are not even listed in this database. I could find all these in Kew
Database. This raises a big question, which database we should follow for
the sake of unanimity. As different volunteers are working for updation of
our website, we need to develop consensus. As per my recent experience I
would vote for Kew Database. Your opinions please to reach an agreed
solution.
