ZooKey

Abstract

ZooKey. This paper presents a software for developing taxonomic keys. ZooKey can be divided in two modules: ZooKey Developer and ZooKey Viewer. The first module is made by the one interested in developing a key, while the second, concerns the user. Texts, illustrations, graphics, tables and any other information about the group, like general biology, morphology, ecology, phylogeny can be inserted in ZooKey Developer. Furthermore, diagnoses, figures and maps can also be included. The program automatically generates the electronic version that can be used through ZooKey Viewer.
