Zoological Record is the world's oldest continuing database of animal biology. It is considered the world's leading taxonomic reference, and with coverage back to 1864, has long acted as the world's unofficial register of animal names. The broad scope of coverage ranges from biodiversity and the environment to taxonomy and veterinary sciences.

75,000 records added every year; available with up to 3.5 million records to 1864.

With Zoological Record, you can:

• Determine the first appearance of an animal in published literature.
• Follow research in significant fields such as biodiversity, ecology, conservation, and wildlife preservation.
• Track changes in the classification and relationships of organisms.
• Check for new species descriptions.
• Identify potential collaborators with significant citation records.
• Integrate searching, writing, and bibliography creation into one streamlined process.

Why choose Zoological Record?

• Comprehensive Coverage: Covers over 5,000 serials, plus many other sources of information including books, reports, and meetings. Every item included in Zoological Record has met the high standards of an objective evaluation process that eliminates clutter and excess and delivers data that is accurate, meaningful and timely.
• Integrated access to other ISI Web of Knowledge data and tools: Accessing Zoological Record on the ISI Web of Knowledge platform means you can simultaneously search all other ISI Web of Knowledge resources your institution subscribes to, and take advantage of their powerful tools such as cited reference searching. One common vocabulary within this platform enables your search terms to be matched to all relevant terms that may be categorized differently in other databases, delivering more complete and relevant results.
• Insightful Analysis Options: Find hidden trends and patterns, gain insight into emerging fields of research, and identify leading researchers, institutions, and journals with the Analyze Tool. 
• Backfile Data to 1864: Track more than 140 years of vital data and find the supporting - or refuting - data you need. Modern indexing terms and search functions have been added to older backfiles to further ease your search. More backfiles give you the power to conduct deeper, more comprehensive searches and track trends through time.

• A full range of disciplines: Find information in all aspects of animal biology, paleobiology, and zoology, focusing on the natural biology of animals (fossil, recent, whole animal, behavioral, environmental, and cellular studies).
• Specialized indexing: Use specialized indexing for more accurate retrieval, including the ZR Thesaurus, containing approximately 6,000 controlled terms. Indexing includes the animal name, controlled subject term, modifier, a taxonomic classifier, and author date.
• Integrated bibliography management: Use EndNote® Web, fully integrated and freely available to any Zoological Record on ISI Web of Knowledge user, to easily access and organize your references online. Send references to EndNote Web as you search, share EndNote Web folders with others, store references online between search sessions.
• Full-text links: Directly access publishers' full-text articles.
• Alerting and RSS feeds: Keep up to date with the information that matters to you by saving general, cited reference and chemical structure searches as email alerts. Or set up RSS feeds for saved searches and Citation Alerts.
