An editorial introduces an exemplar paper by Pyle et al. (2008: 3-31) who described five new species of damselfish (Chromis) from deep coral reefs in the tropical western Pacific. This is the first taxonomic paper integrating many of the most recent cybertaxonomic tools with species descriptions and demonstrating the utility of international standards for biodiversity informatics.
