	abstract = {We review the three most widely used {XML} schemas used to mark-up taxonomic texts, {TaxonX}, {TaxPub} and {taXMLit.} These are described from the viewpoint of their development history, current status, implementation, and use cases. The concept of {\textquotedblleft}taxon treatment{\textquotedblright} from the viewpoint of taxonomy mark-up into {XML} is discussed. {TaxonX} and {taXMLit} are primarily designed for legacy literature, the former being more lightweight and with a focus on recovery of taxon treatments, the latter providing a much more detailed set of tags to facilitate data extraction and analysis. {TaxPub} is an extension of the National Library of Medicine Document Type Definition {(NLM} {DTD)} for taxonomy focussed on layout and recovery and, as such, is best suited for mark-up of new publications and their archiving in {PubMedCentral.} All three schemas have their advantages and shortcomings and can be used for different purposes.},
