An asterisk before a reference indicates that no taxonomic/morphological information but only distribution data are cited, whereas a question mark indicates that the recorded identity of the taxon in the reference may not be correct. To my (old) eyes the font is rather small and perhaps a trifle "spidery" in appearance; for some reason the letter "t" does not extend above the other letters in the Roman-style font text (letters such as "f", "b", "d", and "l" do...), although it does so in the even smaller, but rather pleasing, italic font. The book is divided into four sections: I i i ) I List of genera and species i , I with their records i - comprising a catalogue of the currently recognised taxa with their synonyms and reference citations; I ii i ) I References i ; I iii i ) I List of genera i - an alphabetical list of taxa at the generic and subgeneric levels, together with their synonyms; and I iv i ) I List of species i - an alphabetical list of valid species names and their synonyms.

This article evaluates the independent electronic resource management system (ERMS) for library use, examining the efficiency of the ERMS in integrating and streamline the multi-step processes librarians encounter when navigating searches between print and electronic documents. It considers which libraries would benefit from systems developed by vendors and which might benefit more from their own locally created system.
