EDIT - ATBI in Borjomi/Kharagauli (Georgia)

The data provided have been collected under the scope of the European Distributed Institute of Taxonomy (EDIT), a network of more than 20 European, North American and Russian taxonomic institutions with support from the European Commission (Project no. 018340). As part of EDIT's activities to strengthen the input of taxonomy for biodiversity conservation, the Museum fuer Naturkunde Berlin (MfN) and the State Museum of Natural History Stuttgart (SMNS), Germany, coordinates and supports the participation of taxonomic experts in "All Taxa and Biodiversity Inventory and Monitoring" (ATBI+M) projects at designated areas of conservation value. ATBI+M efforts are large-scale, longer-term field surveys to record, identify, and document the entire biodiversity of specific (conservation) areas, which will form the basis for subsequent monitoring biodiversity changes over time. All data presented here originate either directly from field surveys undertaken by many individual EDIT researchers and participants at designated ATBI+M sites or from published literature and other records referring to the same areas.

所提供的数据系在欧盟分布式分类学研究所（European Distributed Institute of Taxonomy，简称EDIT）的框架下收集而成。该研究所是一个由20多个欧洲、北美及俄罗斯分类学机构组成的网络，并得到欧盟委员会（项目编号018340）的支持。作为EDIT强化分类学对生物多样性保护贡献活动的一部分，柏林自然博物馆（Museum fuer Naturkunde Berlin，简称MfN）与斯图加特州立自然历史博物馆（State Museum of Natural History Stuttgart，简称SMNS）协调并支持分类学专家参与在具有保护价值的指定区域的“所有生物类群及生物多样性清查与监测”（All Taxa and Biodiversity Inventory and Monitoring，简称ATBI+M）项目。ATBI+M项目是大规模、长期性的野外调查，旨在记录、鉴定并编制特定（保护）区域的完整生物多样性，这些资料将构成随后监测生物多样性随时间变化的基础。此处展示的所有数据均直接来源于众多EDIT研究人员和参与者于指定ATBI+M场地进行的实地调查，或来源于引用相同区域的已发表文献及其他记录。
