Tools for working with information on species or other taxa.

Project description

Taxonome is a set of tools for working with information on biological taxa.

In particular, it handles scientific names, and can match the names found in a dataset to a given synonymy, taking into account spelling differences, synonyms and homonyms.

It also includes functions to standardise species distribution information to the regions defined by the Taxonomic Diversity Working Group (TDWG).

Taxonome includes a GUI interface for working with collections of taxa. This requires PyQt4.
