Homonyms

The file below contains over 21,000 'homonym groups.' A homonymFlag attribute was originally set to true for all duplicate name records that were not part of the corrigenda (which has a corrigendaFlag set to true). An examination of some of these homonym groups reveals duplicate records within the body of the Nomenclator volumes themselves either as unintentional replicated records within differet volumes or corrigenda records that are not within the Corrigenda. We are working to review this listing and set the appropriate attributes to refine this listing.

The table at left contains the first 500 groups in descending order. To download a text dump of the list, click the icon at right.

The query used to generate this list is:

select name, count(name) as cnt from entries where corrigendaFlag=0 group by name having count(name) > 1 order by cnt;
