Abstract
The taxonomic disciplines, classification and identification, are fundamental to most biological sciences. Yet, taxonomic teaching and research have declined to a level where adequate support for the other sciences can no longer be sustained. New teaching initiatives are needed, combined with the provision of suitable resource materials and identification guides. Bodies such as the Field Studies Council and the Linnean Society have a tradition of publishing identification keys, but the experience of the AIDGAP project, first started in 1976, shows that considerable thought must be given to content and presentation. Testing prior to publication is vital.
