General Biodiversity Records from Ireland
The records in this Dataset are general records of different taxonomic groups submitted to the National Biodiversity Data Centre. This provides a temporary facility to store and make available data submitted to the Centre, until such time as subsets of the data can be added to a recognised national database.
Geographic Coverage: The island of Ireland
Temporal Coverage: Primarily for capturing new records from 2010 onwards, though it also contains some older records.
Species Groups recorded: acarine (Acari), alga, amphibian, annelid, bird, bony fish (Actinopterygii), bryozoan, cartilagenous fish (Chondricht, centipede, coelenterate (=cnidarian), comb jelly (Ctenophora), conifer, Crustacean, echinoderm, fern, Flatworm (Turbellaria), flowering plant, Fungus, harvestman (Opiliones), insect - alderfly (Megaloptera, Insect - beetle (Coleoptera), insect - booklouse (Psocoptera, insect - bristletail (Archaeog, Insect - butterfly, insect - caddis fly (Trichopte, insect - dragonfly (Odonata), insect - earwig (Dermaptera), insect - hymenopteran, insect - lacewing (Neuroptera), insect - mayfly (Ephemeroptera, insect - moth, insect - orthopteran, insect - silverfish (Thysanura, insect - stick insect (Phasmid, insect - stonefly (Plecoptera), Insect - true bug (Hemiptera), insect - true fly (Diptera), jawless fish (Agnatha), lichen, liverwort, millipede, Mollusc, moss, ribbon worm (Nemertinea), sea spider (Pycnogonida), slime mould, spider (Araneae), sponge (Porifera), springtail (Collembola), stonewort, terrestrial mammal, tunicate (Urochordata)

- Statement
-
The bulk of the records contained in this Dataset are from either professional recorders or highly competent recorders working in a voluntary capacity. Not all of the data has been validated.
Data Capture Method: Data collected by different survey methods, but principally by direct field observation.
Data Capture Purpose: To provide a facility for recorders to contribute to the knowledge of the distribution of species in Ireland and to make their records more freely avaiable.
Original Format: Data stored in a variety of formats but brought together in a SQL database
