Interactive Maps:

The E-Fauna BC interactive maps are based on databases of specimen collections obtained from several data providers, including the Royal BC Museum, GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility), the Smithsonian, the Canadian National Collection, and individual expert databases (see list below). Errors or omissions should be reported directly to the data provider so they can correct and update their databases. Corrections will show on our maps the next time we update that database. Contact information for our data providers is listed below.
