MULTILINGUAL MULTISCRIPT PLANT NAME DATABASE



On line References for all records

Our evaluation of these sites is indicated with stars : ***** = extreme value, **** = almost excellent, *** = fair, ** = room for improvement, * = Good for a few words, no star = not yet evaluated, and comments are added at the end of samples of sites' content. Please note that this is a very biased evaluation made from the standpoint of specialists in name handling. Many sites are specialised primarily in one or several things whilst their listing of names are understandably given lower priorities and consideration. This is not an evaluation of the sites but of their serving of names only. The list is in order of author or site names. "Search in page", command "F" or command "G" can be used to search for a word, a language, or a name. Can't find it ? Try any of our indexes for language-specific dictionaries and translators. Due to problems with some languages and diacritics some reference names can only be displayed on these language-specific pages.
