Geographic Description

Britain and Ireland

Purpose

The purpose of this dataset is to add to the knowledge and understanding of weevils and bark beetles. We hope it will help encourage recording of this group and aid in efforts to conserve weevils and their habitats.

Data quality

The route by which data arrives for verification in iRecord can vary, and comes from recorders with a wide range of experience, but the same verification process is applied to all data and the scheme believes that the dataset provided to NBN is of high quality. Records of common species are usually accepted without question unless there is evidence that they are incorrect.

Methods

Records in this dataset come from numerous sources and have been collected using a range of methods. The majority of records are likely to be field observations.
