Use Case 9

Difference between current version and version 1:

Line 7 was replaced by line 7
- This is an alternative entry into the "concept world". In other Use Cases, the typical work flow for a query is (1) "name", (2) "concept", and (3) "related concepts". In this Use Case, taxonomic concepts are queried ''not'' through their associated names, but through ''other'' information tied to them. A short review of the current version of the SEEK Taxon transfer schema (see http://seek.speciesanalyst.net/ow.asp?TaxonWGConferenceCall%5F30%5FJuly%5F2003) suggests various additional "keys" to enter the "concept world", e.g. by querying all concepts associated with a particular author ("Stone"), reference ("FNA"), year ("1997"), or (set of) specimen(s) ("CANB 621770-1"). This combination of non-name query vehicles is what the current Use Case covers.
