Chinese Plants Names Index 2010-2017

The first two volumes of the Chinese Plant Names Index (CPNI) cover the years
2000 through 2009, with entries 1 through 5,516, and 2010 through 2017, with
entries 5,517 through 10,795. A unique entry is generated for the specific
name of each taxon in a specific publication. Taxonomic treatments cover all
novelties at the rank of family, genus, species, subspecies, variety, form and
named hybrid taxa, new name changes (new combinations and new names), new
records, new synonyms and new typifications for vascular plants reported or
recorded from China. Detailed information on the place of publication,
including author, publication name, year of publication, volume, issue, and
page number, are given in detail. Type specimens and collections information
for the taxa and their distribution in China, as well as worldwide, are also
provided. The bibliographies were compiled from 182 journals and 138
monographs or books published worldwide. In addition, more than 400 herbaria
preserve type specimens of Chinese plants are also listed as an appendix. This
book can be used as a basic material for Chinese vascular plant taxonomy, and
as a reference for researchers in biodiversity research, environmental
protection, forestry and medicinal botany.
