Discussion

I propose to change "described_in" to "published_in", described is currently used in two very different senses. -- GregorHagedorn - 19 May 2006

agreed and changed -- RobertKukla - 19 May 2006

Does the parentOf/childOf pair mean parent-child relationship of e.g. hybrids, or higher-lower relationship of taxa? If the latter, what is the difference from includes/includedIn ? -- JamesYtow - 08 Jun 2007
