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. ...

Welcome to the website of the Canadian National Vegetation Classification (CNVC). The mandate of the CNVC is to comprehensively classify and describe natural and semi-natural Canadian vegetation in an ecologically meaningful manner. The classification will ultimately be a hierarchical taxonomy of vegetation conditions at different levels of generalization. Work is ongoing, and updates are made to the site as portions of the classification are confirmed. Parts of the site are under construction and new material is constantly being developed. This site contains all materials produced by the CNVC partnership, including: 1) background documentation on the project, its governance, and the CNVC partnership; 2) description of the classification structure and CNVC standards of methodology, data, and analysis; 3) names of all confirmed classified elements (to date) and factsheets (in PDF format) that have been completed (see Associations List). The classified elements are searchable on multiple criteria. ... [Information of the supplier]
The Botanical Exploration in Myanmar project is a collaborative effort involving participants from the U.S. National Herbarium, the Forest Department of Myanmar, and the University of Yangon. In April 2003 we published a checklist of the gymnosperms and angiosperms of Myanmar in the Smithsonian Contributions to Botany series. This checklist updates four previous editions dating back to 1912. This Web site presents only the 2003 version of the checklist. The database of names for the checklist is being kept up to date with new information and the current version is available here. ... [Information of the supplier]
Mrs. M.J. van Steenis-Kruseman laboriously collected all data on collectors in the Southeast Asian Archipelago, also known as Malesia (comprising Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Phillippines, Singapore). She published her data in Flora Malesiana series 1, volume 1 as the Cyclopaedia of collectors with some Addenda and corrigenda at the end of volume 1. Two supplements were published in Flora Malesiana ser. 1, vol. 5 and 8. The data of the volumes 1, 5 and 8 are now combined into this website. Flora Malesiana is the major flora for the Malay Archipelago. It is published by the Nationaal Herbarium Nederland. The data are more or less complete up to 1974. Later data on collectors and their trips can be obtained from Flora Malesiana Bulletin (also a publication of the Nationaal Herbarium Nederland). ... [Information of the supplier]
The Ecological Database of the British Isles has been constructed from a wide variety of sources by Dr Helen Peat and Professor Alastair Fitter at the University of York, with financial support from the British Ecological Society and the Natural Environment Research Council. It consists of data on over 1770 species of higher plants that occur in the British Isles, together with the bibliography of sources. This version has been realised by Dr Henry Ford. The data comprises information on taxonomy (family, genus, specific name, authority, and vernacular name, together with a synonomy), a suite of over 130 ecological and morphological characteristics, vice-county distribution in Britain, European distribution by country, mycorrhizal associations and fungal diseases. The data are obtained from the literature and therefore coverage varies greatly between species. Some data sets are incomplete at this stage. ... [Information of the supplier]
Efloraofindia (eFI in short) website has been created for documenting flora of India that is being discussed on efloraofindia google e-group along with supplementing the working of the group. It has the largest database on net on Indian Flora with more than 8000 species (which also have more than 1,60,000 pictures at its efloraofindia e-group links). Efloraofindia (earlier Indiantreepix/ Efloraindia) e-group is the largest Google e-group in the world in this field & largest nature related in India (and the most constructive, with more than 2045 members & 1,45,000 messages on 31/1/13) devoted to creating awareness, helping in identification etc. along with discussion & documentation of Indian Flora. It has already completed five years in June'2012. ... [Information of the supplier]
E-Flora BC is an electronic atlas of the plants of British Columbia that provides key information on the plant species found in the province for use in conservation, education and research. The atlas covers both vascular plants, including our many colourful wildflowers, and non-vascular plants, which includes the myriad species of mosses, liverworts, lichens, algae and fungi that are found in BC. ...

Euro+Med PlantBase ("the information resource for euro-mediterranean plant diversity") provides an on-line database and information system for the vascular plants of Europe and the Mediterranean region, against an up-to-date and critically evaluated consensus taxonomic core of the species concerned. After several years of planning, the project is now firmly underway. The first stage of the project (referred to as Phase One) has been financed for three years by the European Union under Framework V. This database is constantly expanded and improved. Already in 2009, EuroMed provides three of the largest families: Compositae (Asteraceae, sunflower family) Poaceae (Gramineae, grass family) Rosaceae (rose family); and the following smaller families: Alismataceae, Aponogetonaceae, Basellaceae, Butomaceae, Cabombaceae, Chenopodiaceae (only tribus Salicornieae), Corylaceae, Elatinaceae, Geraniaceae, Haloragaceae, Hippuridacae, Hydrocharitaceae Juncaginaceae Lemnaceae Lilaeaceae Myricaceae Najadaceae, Nelumbonaceae, Nymphaeaceae, Posidoniaceae, Potamogetonaceae, Proteaceae, Ruppiaceae, Scheuchzeriaceae, Sparganiaceae, Tetragoniaceae, Zannichelliaceae, Zosteraceae, Zygophyllaceae. Common names were not yet available in all languages. By April 2015 Euro+Med Plantbase provided access to 190 plant families, corresponding to ca. 95 % of the European flora of vascular plants. ...

You can find interesting plants everywhere in Britain and Ireland. This site is intended to help you identify them. On the following pages you will be presented with a questionnaire on the characteristics of the plant you are trying to identify. Fill in the form and press search, the computer will then try and identify the plant you have found. You may also like to use the system to obtain a check-list of plants from a particular habitat or perhaps find flowers of a particular colour to grow in your garden. Feel free to experiment, there are many uses for the system. ... [Information of the supplier]
The main purpose of Flora Croatica database is: 1. storage, 2. updating, 3. informing and 4. data analysing of Croatian vascular flora. It is deriving from systematics (nomenclature, synonyms, authorisation), chorology (distribution on the basis of literature data, herbaria collections, field investigations, oral reports), bibliography, etymology, ecology (ecological index) etc. Database enables the processing of numerical, text, audio and video documents and it is connected with GIS applications. For detailes about data sources please see pages about flora and bibliography. Flora Croatica Database (FCD 1.2 and later on versions) has been realised in the frame of project "Biological database and GIS II" under the supervision of dr. Toni Nikolić. ...
