{{main|The Plant List}}
Kew also cooperated with the [[Missouri Botanical Garden]] and other international bodies in [[The Plant List]] (TPL). Unlike the IPNI, it provides information on which names are currently accepted. The Plant List is an [[Internet encyclopedia project]] which was launched in 2010 to compile a comprehensive list of [[botanical nomenclature]].<ref name=Paton2013>{{cite web|last=Paton|first=Alan|title=What's in a name? New version of The Plant List released |url=https://www.kew.org/read-and/watch/new-plant-list-released|publisher=Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew|date=2013|access-date=16 January 2025}}</ref> The Plant List has records for 1,064,035 scientific names for plant species, representing 350,699 accepted plant species. In addition, the list has records for 642 plant families and 17,020 plant genera. It was last updated in 2013, and was superseded by [[World Flora Online]].<ref name=TPL>{{cite web|title=The Plant List|url=http://www.theplantlist.org|website=[[The Plant List]] |version=1.1 |date=September 2013|access-date=16 January 2025 }}</ref><ref name=WFO>{{cite web | url=http://worldfloraonline.org/ | title=World Flora Online: An Online Flora of All Known Plants | website=The World Flora Online Consortium | access-date=16 January 2025  }}</ref>
