Sažetak
Although the hierarchical structure of the concept system within a given domain is presented implicitly in an alphabetically arranged terminological dictionary, however its presentation is usually unsystematic and shown only to a limited extent. With individual groups of terms the fragments of this structure can already be observed on the expressional level, e.g. 'karotenoid karoten alfakaroten betakaroten'. In this way the structure is also shown on the level of entries included in a dictionary. A broader overview of the individual segments of the hierarchy is given through a larger amount of terms on the level of definitions -either in definitions as a whole or in their component parts. Since the classifying terms used in definitions function as hypernyms they indirectly reveal which terms -besides the defined one -constitute the same concept group. On the other hand, the extensional elements in the definition of a given term draw attention to the groups of hyponymic terms (concepts).
The article presents an attempt of explicit presentation of hierarchical relationships among concepts (terms) on both, macro-and microstructural levels in the alphabetically arranged dictionary of botany, which is now in preparation. In this way it may be possible to present coherently those segments within the concept systems of botany and related sciences which can be hierarchically systemized.
