The document summarizes recent developments to Kew's grass databases. It overhauled the species descriptions database, adding 10,800 descriptions accessible via webpages along with interactive identification keys. It also linked the synonymy database to descriptions and added new queries. Future plans include enhancing descriptions with illustrations and distribution maps, developing a web-based interactive key, and incorporating the synonymy database into an online monocot checklist.
