Pronunciation of Biological Latin: http://www.saltspring.com/capewest/pron.htm

Outlines the rules for the pronunciation of biological Latin (including scientific names) in current day "Anglo-Latin", with lots of examples. Although written in Canada, the rules are of universal application in the English-speaking world and the examples match what this reviewer is used to hearing.

Classical Latin is also briefly discussed.
