The Global Lacewing Digital Library: Delivering the Core Taxonomic Resources of the Neuropterida of the World (Insecta: Neuroptera, Megaloptera, Raphidioptera) via the WWW.

知识价值：全球鸟类数字图书馆(GLDL)构成了一个前所未有的关于昆虫超目神经翼目(草类、蚂蚁及其盟友)的基本信息的数字合成。全球低密度脂蛋白将以综合方式汇集五个核心组成部分的独特全球综合：(1)神经翼目世界名录；(2)神经翼目文献综合书目；(3)神经翼目分类文献数字图书馆；(4)世界现存神经翼目属成虫的数字检索表；以及(5)通过国际物种2000动态清单倡议提供神经翼目名录和分类地位数据。作为世界神经翼界的重中之重项目，GLDL将比近年来任何其他项目更多地推动、组织和优先开展世界范围内对这一群体的系统学研究。广泛的影响：正确识别生物有机体是所有生物科学和所有与生物相关的经济活动的基础。全球低密度脂蛋白将为一大群(6850种)具有重大环境和经济意义的捕食性昆虫对全球生物多样性信息基础设施作出根本性的新贡献。该项目将为研究生和本科生提供参与生物系统学科学的机会。此外，它还将提供一套新的数字工具，使世界上生物多样性丰富但生物多样性信息贫乏地区的研究人员能够在这些地区的生物多样性进一步减少之前，更有效和高效地探索当地的神经翼类动物群，并提高发现和科学描述新物种的速度。

Intellectual Merit: The Global Lacewing Digital Library (GLDL) constitutes a never-before-attempted digital synthesis of fundamental information on the insect superorder Neuropterida (lacewings, antlions and their allies). The GLDL will bring together in an integrated manner a unique global synthesis of five core components: (1) a world catalogue of the Neuropterida; (2) a comprehensive bibliography of neuropterid literature; (3) a digital library of neuropterid taxonomic literature; (4) digital keys to the adults of the world's living neuropterid genera; and (5) delivery of neuropterid name and taxonomic status data through the international Species 2000 Dynamic Checklist initiative. As a top-priority project of the world's neuropterological community, the GLDL will do more to advance, organize and prioritize worldwide systematics research on this group than any other project in recent history.Broader Impacts: The correct identification of biological organisms is fundamental to all biological sciences and all biologically-related economic activities. The GLDL will provide a fundamental new contribution to the global biodiversity information infrastructure for a large group (6850 species) of environmentally and economically significant predatory insects. The project will provide opportunities for the involvement of graduate and undergraduate students in the science of biological systematics. Additionally, it will provide a new suite of digital tools that will empower researchers in biodiversity-rich, yet biodiversity-information-poor, regions of the world to more effectively and efficiently explore their local neuropterid faunas and increase the rate at which the discovery and scientific description of new species can occur - before the biodiversity of such regions is further diminished.
