He is noted for his work in founding Species 2000 in 1997, which coordinated the publication of the Catalogue of Life, the most comprehensive catalogue of species.[1][2] Bisby was the first chair of the Taxonomic Database Working Group (TDWG), which was founded in 1985. Bisby continued to lead significant projects, including the International Legume Database and Information Service (ILDIS).[3][4] He served as a professor of botany at the University of Reading for most of his career.[5] After his PhD at Oxford University he worked with the University of Southampton before becoming a professor in botany at Reading University. {{botanist|F.A.Bisby|Fremont, John}}References1. ^Memorandum and Articles of Association of Species 2000, 11 December 1997 {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120508192245/http://documents.sp2000.org/Legal/Species2000_Memorandum%26Articles.pdf |date=2012-05-08 }} 2. ^Obituary: Frank A.
