The paper is a short outline of the interactive computer system BIKEY intended for identification of biological objects. The basic system functions are discussed with special attention for its dialogue program-operated illustrated keys. The system operating procedure is illustrated by an example of key construction for Antarctic species of hydroids of the genus Symplectoscyphus. |
Keywords: identification, key, monoentry, multientry, dichotomous, polychotomous, characters, state of character, matrix, hydroids, hydrotheca, gonotheca. |
