<div>Perhaps we can find a general simple tagging for palms.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>key:genus and key:species expect the scientific name of a plant. These are normaly not known to non-botanists.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>"taxon:en=palm" may be a good solution, although I would prefer "taxon=palm". Unfortunable the latter don't fit to the taxon definition.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers</div>

<div id=":2ni" style="overflow: hidden;">There are species and genus tags, but many mappers won't be able to<br/>
fill that those. Palm on the other hand is easy,<br/>
and makes a great map symbol also.</div>

If you're not sure about the genus or species, you could also use more generic taxon like<br/>
family=Arecaceae<br/>
or common names, like family:en=palm<br/>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">Or following this page: <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:taxon" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:taxon</a></div>
<div class="gmail_extra">taxon:family=Arecaceae</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">taxon:family:en=palm<br/>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">or if you don't know that palms are a family:</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">taxon:en=palm</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">(at least that's what the taxon page suggests).<br/>
</div>
