Folks,
I've been looking around for DTD and other info about structuring information about plants.

The ITIS seems to have a good spec for Scientific names, Author
info and even has a stab at Common names and distribution info.

The Dublin Core
http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/
has good data for describing publications.

Getty Thesaurus of Geographic Names Online
http://www.getty.edu/research/conducting_research/vocabularies/tgn/index.html
has all the names of places you could ever need.
