This paper presents a use-case conducted within the ENVRI FAIR project, examining
challenges and opportunities in deploying FAIR-aligned (ensuring Findability, Accessibility,
Interoperability and Reusability) scientific name-matching services across Environmental
Research Infrastructures (RIs). Six services were tested using various name variations,
revealing inconsistencies in match types, status reporting and handling of canonical forms
and typos. These diversities pose challenges for RI data pipelines and interoperability. The
paper underscores the importance of standardised tools, enhanced communication,
training, collaboration and shared resources. Addressing these needs can facilitate more
effective FAIR implementation within the ENVRI community and biodiversity research. This,
in turn, will empower RIs to seamlessly integrate and leverage scientific names, unlocking
the full potential of their data for research and policy implementation.
