Software tools for (semi-)automatic taxonomic proofreading
1) Global Names Resolver: http://resolver.globalnames.biodinfo.org/
-> Uses a variety of reference lists.
-> Currently the best software tool to detect and correct orthographic errors in taxon names in vegetation data.
2) taxize: https://github.com/ropensci/taxize
-> Fetches results from the Global Names Resolver.
3) Interrim Register of Non-marine and Marine Genera (IRNMG): http://www.cmar.csiro.au/datacentre/irmng/
-> Uses the Catalogue of Life as a reference list.
4) Plantminer: http://www.plantminer.com/
-> Nice shiny interface. Uses The Plant List as a reference list.
5) Taxonomic Name Resolution Service (TNRS): http://tnrs.iplantcollaborative.org/TNRSapp.html
-> Uses Tropicos, NCBI and USDA Plants as reference lists.
6) Salvias TaxonScrubber: http://www.salvias.net/pages/taxonscrubber.html
-> Executable software for Windows, uses a Graphical User Interface.
7) taxonome: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Taxonome
python based software that accepts custom reference lists.
8) Taxonstand: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/Taxonstand/index.html
Uses The Plant List as a reference list.

Overview: Databases on plant species status in European countries
Here is an overview of databases that report vascular plant species' status (alien/native) in European countries. If you know of other sources I could add, please let me know.
