GBIF

GBIF provides open biodiversity data and species occurrence records. The website brings together biodiversity data, species records and research discovery.

Start with the subject, publication, dataset or research record you need. Search results and record metadata help distinguish source types, versions and access arrangements. A preprint, published article and underlying dataset are different research materials. Use the original record and its source information when following up a result, and consult the repository or provider’s current access and reuse information for the material selected.
