The Interim Register of Marine and Nonmarine Genera (IRMNG) is a taxonomic database comprising the scientific names of the genus, species, and higher ranks of many plants, animals and other kingdoms, both living and extinct. As of December 2018, the number of names reported by IRMNG to be included in the database was 2,299,581.[1]

The data includes homonyms (with their authorities), including both available (validly published) and selected unavailable names.[2]

IRMNG was initiated in 2006 by the Ocean Biogeographic Information System (OBIS) Australia at CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research, and since has been hosted by the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ) since 2016.[1][3][4][4] VLIZ also hosts the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS), using a common infrastructure.[5]

Data from IRMNG is used by Open Tree of Life,[6] the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), [7] and the Encyclopedia of Life (EOL).[8] From 2018 onwards, IRMNG data are also being used to populate the taxonomic hierarchy and provide generic names for a range of taxa in the areas of protists (kingdoms Protozoa and Chromista) and plant algae (Charophyta, Chlorophyta, Glaucophyta and Rhodophyta) in the Catalogue of Life.[4]

IRMNG was initiated and designed by Tony Rees.[1][9] For his work on this and other projects, GBIF awarded him the 2014 Ebbe Nielsen Prize.[9] The citation said, in part:[9]

IRMNG in particular has been a tool of enormous importance to GBIF and others in supplying much of the detail for a global taxonomic classification of all life and as high-value taxon trait data in a form which can readily be reused in data validation and to enhance species pages.

IRMNG is now managed and curated by Rees, with assistance from the VLIZ team.[1]
