Euro+Med taxonomic backbone

Euro+Med taxonomic backbone

Flat file version of the Euro+Med database, derived through the EDIT platform web services

Change log

version 1.0

Turboveg version: A version of the Euro+Med list to be used by the vegetation database program Turboveg for Windows. Since TV uses only a 5 digit numeric field to store taxon id's, synonyms are excluded to reduce the number of names.

Documentation

This page aims to project the Euro+Med database into a flat table format and to provide unambiguous taxon names without duplicate names. The list includes a taxonomic hierarchy by parent relationships.
