BioNames is a database of taxa, texts, and trees. It includes taxonomic names for
animals (and other organisms covered by the ICZN), full text literature from BioStor and BHL,
links to digital literature (via CrossRef, CiNii, Gallica, JSTOR, and other archives),
taxonomic classifications (GBIF and NCBI, cross-linked using EOL, which also provides the images),
and phylogenetic trees from PhyLoTA.
BioNames is being developed by Roderic D M Page.
Funding for the first release (including development work by Ryan Schenk) was provided by EOL.
