What do we need?• Taxon objects with unique ID that can be linked to data

(observations, collected specimens, images, generalizations, expert opinions)

• Recommended names• List of synonyms, alternative spellings etc.• Taxonomic hierarchies (taxon tree nodes)

• Taxonomic sort order values• Taxonomic category information• Taxonomic change history information• Pointers to inclusive taxa• References, komments
