The Biodiversity Data Bank wants to be a compilation of all Catalonia biodiversity information. It is developed by the computerisation of all Catalonia species available records. The record computerisation is completed by supplementary data, like biology, distribution, ecology, etc. The aim in project is to know and to compile the maximum number of bibliographic records about Catalonia biodiversity. This records are the information source of the Data Bank. This knowledges will allow us to know, moreover the distribution species and biological data, its conservation status and degrees of threat, rareness, endemicity, etc. Data regarding cormophytic flora, vegetation, fungi, vertebrates and arthropods has been computerised nowadays, thanks to an agreement between the Barcelona University and the Environment Department of the Generalitat of Catalonia. ...

Anthos is a program that was developed in order to show assorted information about the plant life of Spain on the Internet. The overall geographical environment chosen for the project is a view of the Iberian Peninsula and the Macaronesian islands (Canaries, Madeira and the Azores) as a representation of each of the biogeographical units to be found in Spain, so that the distribution of a taxon may be studied throughout the entire national territory and surrounding area, fully integrating the taxon in its geographical component. ...

The first major regional flora ever written in Spanish, Flora Mesoamericana is a collaborative effort of the Missouri Botanical Garden the Instituto de Biología of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), the Natural History Museum, London, and numerous specialists world-wide. In Spanish, the Flora describes, for the first time, all the vascular plants growing in the southeasternmost states of Mexico (including the Yucatán Peninsula) and all the Central American republics. The project publishes its results in this Internet version (W3FM), as well as in printed volumes. The Internet version of Flora Mesoamericana (W3FM) is organized in a checklist format in which each botanical name has its own page that is linked to other pages. The checklist is designed to give users a broad overview of the Mesoamerican flora and allow them to easily navigate and browse the Flora. You may search the Flora for any scientific name or you may choose one from eight different indices. Each page is assembled on demand from data in the Flora Mesoamericana production database as a query is made by the user, and each web page thus represents the latest up-to-date information. Links are provided to images, descriptions, identification keys, voucher specimens, maps, other names (synonymy), and taxon-to-taxon links to alternate taxonomic treatments. ...

The Flora of Nicaragua is the first modern flora of that country and the first complete flora of a Latin American country published in Spanish. Nicaragua occupies the middle of Mesoamerica and has an area of about 130,000 km². The north-central part of the country is dominated by mountains reaching about 2,000 m, while the rest is generally low with occasional emergent volcanos. Nicaragua is phytogeographically interesting because many North American floristic elements reach their southern limits in its mountains and many Amazonian elements reach their northern limits in the southeastern part of the country. The Flora of Nicaragua describes 5,796 species in 1,699 genera in 225 families of seed plants. There were 175 contributors from 16 countries. The Flora occupies 2,666 pages in three volumes and took about 23 years to complete. The largest family is the Orchidaceae with 601 species. ... [Information of the supplier]
Diese Webpräsenz zur Flora der Iberischen Halbinsel (mit Spanien, Portugal und Andorra) ist zurzeit noch im Aufbau begriffen; sie bietet aber schon jetzt für sehr viele Arten umfangreiche Informationen einschliesslich detaillierter Abbildungen (welche gedruckten Florenwerken entnommen sind). Für viele systematische Gruppen sind Bestimmungsschlüssel integriert. Weiterhin werden eine Fotogalerie und Foren für registrierte Benutzer angeboten. ... [Redaktion vifabio]
SIVIM (Sistema de Información de la Vegetación Ibérica y Macaronésica) is an information system designed for capturing, hosting, editing, analyzing and outputting georeferenced plot data of Iberian and Macaronesian vegetation. It currently hosts 86,000 relevés, mainly from the northern half of the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands, and will grow to 100,000 relevés in the near future. SIVIM has been conceived to offer direct and free on-line access to relevés, tables, as well as to floristic, syntaxonomical and bibliographical records. The system also offers on-line software for edition and analysis of vegetation data. (...) [Taken from: Font, X. et al.

Flora de Guinea Ecuatorial is a research project, which is coordinated by the Real Jardin Botanico de Madrid. From 1986 to 2001, the Spanish Agency has funded an intensive field work in Bioko and Río Muni for international development cooperation. The result is more than 20,000 Herbarium Specimens and a database of more than 56,000 records from the literature. In 1998, we set a goal to create a modern Flora detection for Guinea. This site aims to be a virtual area of work and discussion for anyone interested in botany of the central African country. We are aware that this project requires the cooperation of botanists of various nationalities. Any help is appreciated. ... [Information of the supplier, translated]
