The author analyzes various situations that influence the pertinence of Web of Science database search based on subject queries in several taxonomic groups (the case study of RAS Library for Natural Sciences users). General recommendations on formulating these subject queries using Web of Science search instruments are formulated: a) synonym taxon name and ambiguity of taхon range definition by different authors; б) exclusion of non-profile subject areas from search results enables to deselect homonymic terms. The paper is prepared through the support of RFFR Grant № 16-07-00450.
