Lucid
An electronic package for the delivery and presentation of taxonomic data, LucID, has been produced by the Co-operative Research Centre for Tropical Pest Management (CTPM) in a joint venture with the University of Queensland and the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, in Australia. A demonstration of the system, which the publishers claim provides a new approach to dealing with taxonomic data, can be found on the Internet. LucID is delivered on a CD-ROM and has an accompanying booklet. It provides an identification key system in two modules: a builder to construct the identification sets, and a player to view and interact with the data. According to CTPM, the package provides a comprehensive search and query system for information and the keys can be used as educational and training tools. LUCID is available for Australian $ 495 from: Software Information Officer, Co-operative Research Centre for Tropical Pest Management, Gehrmann Laboratories, University of Queensland, Brisbane, Qld 4072, Australia.
