Swiss Cartographic Centre on Fauna - Species lists

Distribution maps of a part of the swiss species are available on a cartoserver at: http://www.cscf.ch/

Taxalists available at: http://www.cscf.ch/page13637_en.html

In order to answer the many requests which we receive, we place at your disposal an Excel file of the Latin, German and French names of almost 2000 taxa amongst the most common in Switzerland. These lists are periodically updated.

Do not hesitate to download the systematic files proposed on this page. They contain the species recorded or potentially present in Switzerland or in its neighbouring areas. The following information is provided: order, family, genera, species, subspecies, author, local names (in several languages) and national red list status if they exist. The nomenclature used for the selected groups is based on reference works recognised and systematically used either on a national scale (for example Fauna Helvetica, Diptera Checklist, 1998), or on a European scale (for example Freude, Harde & Lohse for the Coleoptera; The Lepidoptera of Europe, 1996). The choice which has been made is obviously subjective, but it has the advantage of being clear.

Following groups are included in the taxonomic DB : Amphibia / Reptilia, Araneae, Coleoptera, Crustacea Decapoda and Isopoda, Diplopoda, Diptera, Ephemeroptera, Hemiptera, Hymenoptera aculeata, Ixodida, Lepidoptera, Mammalia, Mollusca, Neuroptera, Odonata, Orthopteroidea, Pisces, Plecoptera, Scorpionida, and Trichoptera.

More information on this dataset can be found in the Freshwater Metadatabase - BFE_24 (http://www.freshwatermetadata.eu/metadb/bf_mdb_view.php?entryID=BFE_24).
