The project “Austrian fungi Database“ has the aim to document extensively presence and distribution of fungi in Austria as well as to present and analyse the available data. It is an Austrian-wide cooperation of numerous professional and amateur mycologists and institutions collecting distribution data or maintaining fungal collections. Coordination is done by the Austrian Mycological Society. The online-version of the database offers the possibility to view distribution maps of over 7.800 fungal taxa and to retrieve the active data status of over 310.000 records coming from more than 7.000 different localities throughout Austria. Besides data on locality and date of collection as exact as possible, each data set comprises important information on habitat and substrate of the records, on determination and scientific documentation of the finds as well as on origin and source of the data stored viz. presently over 5 million single data. Further, on these web pages there are data summaries and graphical displays of the parameters covered by the database for single fungal species ("Profile") as well as for administrative and geographic units (provinces, districts, communities, regions, mapping grid squares) or for the total data set. All data lists and diagrams, as well as distribution maps and distribution data are directly generated out of the database. Project collaboration, especially communication of new records, is highly welcome. ... [Information of the supplier]

The Great Region, located between Rhine, Mosel, Sarre and Meuse, has a total area of 65.401 km2. Biogeographically, it is spread over the oceanic and continental zones. The administrative complexity of the Great Region, four countries and five regional entities, offer a challenging opportunity for trans-boundary collaboration in terms of Nature Conservation. Since many years, administrations, scientists and naturalists gather primary biodiversity data that are crucial for science-based decisions making. This website offers a trans-boundary view on species observations related to Birds and Habitats Directive, this project will deliver a more accurate evaluation of Natura2000 network. By linking nature monitoring, scientific research and innovation technology, it exposes publically funded data to a wider public and raises biodiversity loss awareness. Bio-GR makes available data that are shared by several data publishers from the Greater Region. These data are shared according to the Data Usage Agreement, which includes the provision that users of any data accessed through or retrieved via the Bio-GR Portal will always give credit to the original data publishers. ...

Telmee is the Dutch way of saying "Count with us" – an invitation to participate in this international project to record the enormous biodiversity of our continent. Recording which plants and animals occur on which locations in our country is important for the conservation of our nature. Nature sightings can only really be used if they are adequately recorded. And if they end up in a centralised database, so a complete overview will be available. ... [Information of the supplier]

What it means to be Canadian has often been demonstrated through people’s attachment to wildlife and wilderness. This is most evident in the iconic role that wildlife plays in Canadian currency, the popularity of wildlife art, and the billions of dollars that are spent annually on wildlife-related activities in Canada. This connection to wildlife was introduced to many Canadians through the popular Hinterland Who’s Who television announcements, or vignettes. First created in the early 1960s, Hinterland Who’s Who made bold use of a relatively new medium — black and white television — to reach the Canadian general public. The vignettes, produced by the Canadian Wildlife Service, brought native wildlife into living rooms using excellent film footage and simple narration. The new Hinterland Who’s Who series with its accompanying Web site will rebuild the connection thousands of Canadians made with wildlife through the original series. Increasingly, we not only want to learn about nature, we also want to understand how each of us can play a part in preserving it. The Canadian Wildlife Federation, one of Canada’s largest nonprofit, nongovernmental conservation organizations, plays a lead role in showing Canadians how to take action and make a difference.Together, the Canadian Wildlife Service and the Canadian Wildlife Federation are bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience to the rejuvenated Hinterland Who’s Who and to the Canadian public. ...
