Rare plants database extract from Scottish Natural Heritage
NatureScot
Description
This is a subset of the data held in the SNH plant spreadsheet. All records for the West Highland area were extracted as part of the NBN trial in SNH. Original spreadsheet supplied by John McKinnell end of October 2000. This extract was regarded as a temporary step and so the extraction has not been completely validated and this should be borne in mind when using the data. The original data do not represent the definitive view of rare plant distributions in Scotland, according to SNH and do include historical data as well as more recent records from SNH survey. Note that there will be overlap with the data held in the threatened plant database.
