Checklists of UK species
The great yellow bee Bombus distinguendus © P. Williams
Introduction
Checklists are lists of species compiled to
- cover a piece of legislation eg a list of endangered species in Ireland
- define taxonomic group eg a list of all UK birds
The checklists are complied by an authority such as a government agencies, scientific experts and conservation organisations. The authorities own the intellectual property and copyright of the list.
The Dictionary of UK species contains over 250 checklists of species provided by a variety of government, conservation and scientific experts and organisations.
Notice
The Dictionary of UK species is currently providing data for 57 out of 100 taxonomic groups. The data is being released in stages, as we convert the existing content to an improved data structure.
You may also find some of the larger data sets are slow to load and solutions are currently being investigated.
This site is replacing the previous version of the online National Biodiversity Network's Species Dictionary.
