Flora of the Burren and Southeast Connemara interactive CD-ROM now available online

April 16 2010

The interactive CD on the Flora of the Burren and Southeast Connemara (launched on Thursday 7th January) developed by the Department of Botany TCD is now available online - please click here to view online. This novel interface allows for on-line identification, using innovative multiple access keys, to all higher terrestrial plant species in an important floristic region of Ireland. Identifications can be easily confirmed as images of the plants are available. Created by a team from the Department of Botany (Heli Fitzgerald, Chloé Galley, Caroline Byrne and John Parnell), this element of the larger Species.ie web-site was created as part of the larger BIOCHANGE project, run in the School of Natural Sciences and co-ordinated by Dr. Steve Waldren, which has just been completed.
