Standard for recording plant occurrence in Internet

[Francisco Pando de la Hoz]

Dear taxacomers,

Plant occurrence and status scheme (POSS), compiled by the the World
Conservation Monitoring Centre under the auspices of the International
Taxonomic databases Working Group (TDWG), has been prepared in
electronic format and posted on the TDWG pages at:

http://plants.usda.gov/npdc/standrds.html

References to other standards for biodiversity databases (collections,
geographical distribution, etc.) are also found in that site.

F.P.
TDWG Secretary
