Description

The aim of this dataset is to present a list of all known taxa native to Denmark supplemented with non-native taxa which have been established at least locally and/or periodically. Furthermore the list contains a number of taxa which are not considered Danish - casual introductions, taxonomic or geographically unresolved species, incorrectly stated taxa etc. This dataset constitutes the taxonomic backbone (Taxonbasen) of the Danish national species registration portal https://arter.dk. Taxonbasen is a continuation of Allearter (https://allearter.dk and https://allearter-databasen.dk) which has been a part of DanBIF (https://samlinger.snm.ku.dk/en/digital_collections/danbif-and-gbif/) since 2009 - with checklists being available through GBIF since 2017. Arter with Taxonbasen has received generous financial support from Aage V. Jensen Naturfond and 15. Juni Fonden as well as an early contribution from the Danish state.
