Description:

A basic practical manual for the process of describing new species, this desperately needed desk reference and guide to nomenclatural procedure and taxonomic writing serves as a Strunk & White of species description, covering both botanical and zoological codes of nomenclature.

Review Quotes: This book is probably the most exhaustive treatment available of the practical aspects of describing new species or higher taxa.--Henry Disney, Cambridge University "Nature "
