New Latin or Neo-Latin is the Latin language as used in original works created between c. 1500 and c. 1900. Among other uses Latin during this period was employed in scholarly and scientific publications. Latin vocabulary words created during this period for the purpose of expressing scientific ideas form the basis for much modern scientific terminology such as technical terms in zoological and botanical description and taxonomy.
