BioImages - Virtual Field-Guide

Virtual Field-Guide to UK Biodiversity

Subject(s)
Content type(s)
Country
This site offers an enormous collection of photographs of wild species and natural history objects. It covers most groups of organisms with the exception of birds and other vertebrates. The photographs are presented to illustrate biodiversity and as an aid to identification. The criterion for inclusion of a species is that it must have been, or might be expected to be, found in Britain or Ireland. BioImages follows the biological classification. Biota is a hierarchical system with species grouped in genera, genera in families, families in orders and so on up to kingdoms and superkingdoms. The datasets are linked to bioinfo: food webs and species interactions in the Biodiversity of UK and Ireland.

Ontario Reptile and Amphibian Atlas

Subject(s)
Content type(s)
Country
Reptiles and amphibians are collectively known as herpetofauna and are a unique part of Ontario’s biodiversity. An earlier atlas, called the Ontario Herpetofaunal Summary Atlas, provided extensive information about where many of the province’s reptiles and amphibians occurred. The Atlas is transitioning into a new era, with Ontario Nature wrapping-up the data collection phase of this project as of December 1, 2019. Now that we have discontinued our app and online form, we encourage you to continue submitting any future observations through the ‘Herps of Ontario’ project (https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/herps-of-ontario) on iNaturalist or directly to the Natural Heritage Information Centre (nhicrequests@ontario.ca) for species at risk. To learn more about the transition, read our blog (https://ontarionature.org/ontario-reptile-and-amphibian-atlas-changes/)
