Welcome to PAN, the
Publication,
Author and Plant
Name database.
This resource lets you check a plant, author or publication name and see
if there is a similar name which has been
published with regard to family Asclepiadaceae.
Choose the type of name you wish to check and enter the
name in the dialogue box, then press search.
Hint : PAN implements an advanced similarity algorithm, so the name
you are looking for can be even bad spelled - PAN is not picky on errors and
will try to find what you are looking for and eventually suggest the right spelling.
If you have any questions do not hesitate to
get in touch with us.
A word of notice: PAN uses the database tables as setup by the IPNI project. Even if
the staff at IPNI as well as us here at stapeliads.net try to maintain the highest
degree of data correctness, some of the author names and around half of the publication
names and collations might contain errors or inconsistencies (cross links not working).
We are aware about this and there is an ongoing effort by IPNI to raise the quality
and consistency of the indexes.
Acknowledgement: PAN uses tables and name indexes published by various authors as well as
selected subsets of the International Plant Names Index (2005), published
on the Internet
http://www.ipni.org. Relevant IPNI data for family
Asclepiadaceae and linked authors and publications have been accessed on August 23rd, 2005 and subsequently
reprocessed for www.stapeliads.net by specifically designed data mining tools.
