+This Ontology is designed to describe the structure of a Taxonomic Reference System, i.e. an information system that holds information about taxa. It is not an attempt to codify taxonomy as a whole.
+
+## Scope of a Taxonomic Reference System
+A Taxonomic Reference System (TRS) records only taxonomic infomation about taxa. It does not include

+* occurrences
+* Conservation status
+* Biosecuturity status
+* ...
