Evidence: Observation of divergent treatment delimitation
XML schemas and mark-up practices of taxonomic literature
All three schemas mark up taxon treatments, but they delimit and structure the treatment differently: TaxonX treats recovery of the treatment as the primary objective, TaxPub follows the layout of the new publication in which the treatment appears, and taXMLit provides a much finer-grained set of tags within the treatment to facilitate data extraction and analysis.
