This record enriches the publication "Description of a new species of the genus Staphylococcus: Staphylococcus carnosus" to improve its Data Commons accessibility. It demonstrates the generation of DataCite and Darwin Core metadata using DataFutures annostor, to improve discovery. Individual page imagery is generated automatically from a PDF of the original publication, providing a coordinate framework for taxonomic treatment annotations using W3C's Web Annotation Data Model (WADM). Annotations from other sources, such as Plazi TreatmentBank can be converted to WADM, enabling display, editing by experts and long-term preservation.
