The data collection includes all Myxomycota recorded for Germany by recent observations in nature. It is mainly based on the data published by Schnittler et al. 1996, Neubert et al. (1993, 1995, 2000) with few additions of unpublished data contributed by other German myxomycetologists. The data project "Annotated Checklist for the Myxomycota of Germany" was established by Prof. Dr. Martin Schnittler, Greifswald. It is thematically connected with the data project Literature on Myxomycota. ... [Information of the supplier]

The countrywide Natura 2000 area database offers search possibilities in the Natura 2000 areas in Germany and provides information about their protected resources. Precise area information can be accessed separately for bird protection, and flora and fauna habitat areas (FFH areas) by area number, area size, the occurrence of habitat types and Appendix II species or bird species (Appendix I and migratory-bird species) as well as an area description. The area selection is made through the choice of one or more Federal States. By clicking on the area number you obtain the appropriate area profile. Inside the area profile you obtain a habitat profile by clicking on a habitat code. Input of the whole or part of an area name gives you a further selection possibility on the start page of the bird protection or FFH areas. All statements are taken from the German standard data sheet submitted to the EU. ... [Information of the supplier, translated]
A functional prototype of the Biodiversity-Exploratory Information System (BExIS) has been established by Dr. Jens Nieschulze and colleages (group leader Prof. Dr. Ernst-Detlef Schulze), MPI Biogeochemistry Jena. The system is heavily used within the project "Biodiversity Exploratories", mostly by the resources and map functionality but increasingly also by its data management capabilities. ...

The database BiolFlor contains almost 3660 species and more than 60 traits. This data results from several projects conducted in the Department of Community Ecology (UFZ - Centre for Environmental Research) over the last 10 years. It was thus possible to rework and enlarge a previously existing database. However, the work on BiolFlor will not be finished, yet. We will continuously try to improve the database, correct errors and expand the coverage of traits and their states. Registered users will be able to download updates in the future. A full documentation of BiolFlor (in German with English summaries and data tables, table captions and figure legends) including CD-ROM and registration key can be purchased from the Landwirtschaftsverlag. ...

BioLib is non-profit project that can be used as an educational tool. The purpose of this project is to collect biological information and present it to public both professional or just nature lovers. Our first task is to create list of animals, plants and fungi species of Czech Republic, this is about 70 to 90 thousand species. System also contains (or in some cases rather 'will contain') gallery of images connected with records in the species database, database of biological terms, list of literature and links about nature, checklists, language dictionary of species, articles and so on. Project BioLib allows anyone who wants to help to insert data into its databases. After registration the user is allowed to add images, links, write image descriptions, add terms to biological dictionary or texts to species. The submitted data is of course revised before added to database. The purpose of BioLib is to create system that helps people to find as much resources on subject they are interested in as possible, not just in data contained in databases, but also giving them list of links and literature on this subject. ...

Ziel dieser Datenbank ist es, vorhandene Informationen zu alten Obstsorten zur Verfügung zu stellen, damit man a) Entscheidungshilfen hat für die Auswahl und Anpflanzung alter Obstsorten; b) unbekannte Sorten leichter bestimmen kann und c) Hintergrundinformationen über die Herkunft und Entstehung zur Verfügung hat. Mit den Farbtafeln der Obstsortendatenbank haben wir an unserer Streuobstwiese in Lemgo einen Obstsortenlehrpfad errichtet. Ziel ist es über die alten Obstsorten und ihren Wert zu informieren. Projekte dieser Art unterstützen wir. Auf Basis unserer Obstsortentafeln sind bundesweit bereits mehr als 10 Obstsortenlehrpfade errichtet worden. ... [Information des Anbieters]
CLO-PLA3 is a database of plant traits concerning clonal growth and vegetative regeneration of Central European flora. It is a result of team work in which participated: Karolína Bendová, Helena Gruberová, Magda Jonášová, Jan Karpíšek, Leoš Klimeš, Jitka Klimešová, Karel Knopp, Petra Konvalinková, Vojtěch Lanta, Adéla Pokorná. Support during building the database from 1994 was provided by Institute of Botany, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic (grants AV0Z6005908, AV0Z60050516), Grant Agency of the Czech Republic (grant 206/01/1039) and by European Commission (LEDA project under ESSD programme, contract number EVR1-CT-2002-40022). This web pages provide a free access to data for individual species of vascular plants based on literature records and field experience of the authors. If several records are available for a species, all of them are in the database. Each record is referenced so that the user can consult literature sources for original data. Individual records can be saved on user's computer. ... [Information of the supplier]
