	The International Plant Names Index: About the Index Kewensis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Since 1885, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, has been indexing names of seed plants at the level of genus and species published since 1753, and of all ranks from family downward since supplement 16, and making them available in a series of bound volumes, the Index Kewensis.
		Index Kewensis and the annual Kew Index list names of genera and species of seed-bearing plants with their place of publication.
		The Kew Index was published annually from 1986-1989 inclusive and includes names of ferns and fern allies as well the IK data for a particular year.

	Australian Plant Name Index - APNI - introduction
		Publication of the Index marks the culmination of a project begun under the auspices of the Australian Academy of Science and transferred in 1976 to the Australian Biological Resources Study.
		The most comprehensive of these Index Kewensis was prepared in the 1880s and 1890s by Benjamin Daydon Jackson, then Secretary of the Linnean Society, under the direction of Joseph Dalton Hooker at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew (Stafleu, 1966; Meikle, 1971).
		The compilers of Index Kewensis were notified of some of the errors in citation and corrections were notified in Supplement 18 of Index Kewensis.

		The Australian Plant Name Index records names for all Australian plants but its contribution to IPNI is restricted to the flowering plants, the ferns and their allies.
		Although most of the citations in the Gray Index are for names also recorded in Index Kewensis, there are many records for New World infraspecific names which are unique to the Gray Index.
		Furthermore the Gray Index includes many records of typifications subsequent to the time of validation of a name (epi-, lecto- and neo-typifications) which are not duplicated elsewhere.

		Obviously, the editors would have full control, and the editors at the moment would be the existing editors of the nomenclatural databases as Kew, Harvard, and Canberra (which doesn't have somebody in that position at the moment, but is recruiting).
		In the work we've been doing to clean up the Australian Plant Name Index, we have found that botanists are only too willing to participate, because it's in their interests to have the information correct.
		They say: "The herbaria are abbreviated according to the Index Herbariorum acronyms," and I believe that the Holmgrens and Lisa Barnett have some of the highest citation indices in botany because of this.

		Data has been added from selected monographs, from regional projects including Flora Europaea and Conspectus Florae Orientalisand from all published volumes of Index Kewensis, and a manual search through the Index Kewensis CD-ROM was invaluable for locating otherwise overlooked genera.

		Index Kewensis will give you the original details of publication, but you will need to consult further sources such as the Kew Index to Taxonomic Literature, Index to Botanical Monographs and regional Floras.
