New data
New data from Niinemets and Valadares, 2006, on drought, waterlogging and shade tolerance for some 500 woody shrubs and trees has been added. These indices come with a new help page ( from the help menu) and at the moment are not searchable but appear as new characteristics in the ecological characteristics list for each species.
Searchable Characteristics
It has not gone unnoticed that several new characteristics have been added to the characteristics list over past couple of years, but we have not programmed the interface to include relevant search facilities. This will be remedied over this winter as we hope to revamp the user interface in general. Until then the data will appear under the lists of characteristics for particular species.
BRC Database of Insect and their Food Plants
We now have direct access to this database from the menu for each species if the BRC hold data, which they do for over 1600 plants in our database. This means that as well as the NHM corrected data that we hold (increasingly historic data) a maintained list of insects that use each species is now available directly from the site.
