uBio is an initiative within the science library community to join international efforts to create and utilize a comprehensive and collaborative catalog of known names of all living (and once-living) organisms. The Taxonomic Name Server (TNS) catalogs names and classifications to enable tools that can help users find information on living things using any of the names that may be related to an organism. Produced by the Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole; funded by the Mellon Foundation
Nomenclator Zoologicus is a continuous record of the bibliographical origins of the names of every genus and subgenus in zoology published since the 10th ed. of Linnaeus' Systema Naturae in 1758 up to 1994 in nine volumes. Names are listed alphabetically, with a bibliographic reference to the original description of each one and an indication of the animal group to which it belongs. There are an estimated 340,000 genera represented in the text as well as approximately 3000 supplemental corrections.
