Species records

CPBRC holds species data obtained from a number of local recorders and organisations. These species include: Protected species (including those protected under Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981); species listed under Section 41 of the Natural Environment and Rural Communities (NERC) Act 2006; and species with Biodiversity Action Plans - both local and national.

None of these datasets are comprehensive, although records are continually being added.
