Hi Is there a list of taxon changes in chronological order somewhere? I like to annotate my field guides and it would be helpful to see changes after a certain date. I’m asking here because it feels like something that could exist but that I haven’t found yet. Thank you

My guess is probably not. An individual field guide might possibly post a list of updated names when they publish a new version. For a group like plants, though (which is the group I know), there’s not just one authority that decides which names should be used, so there’s not really a start date on …

Thanks. Exactly what I was hoping for.

Index Fungorum and Mycobank have name synonymies - though dating/ordering them based on those may be a toss up.
