The data compilation process was initiated by the EU funded BioFresh project (www.freshwaterbiodiversity.eu) through its contingency fund. With the end of BioFresh 2014 work on the database continued, mostly focusing on filling the distribution gaps and an extensive quality control. Occurrence data in the dataset were provided by 74 data holders based on records from more than 400 different caddisfly collectors. Additional data (about 15.000) were gained through literature evaluation. All data will be made available through the Freshwater Biodiversity Data Portal (www.freshwaterplatform.eu) in the first half of 2016.<br>More information on this dataset can be found in the <a href="http://www.freshwatermetadata.eu/metadb/bf_mdb_view.php?entryID=BF_CF9" target="_blank">Freshwater Metadatabase - BF_CF9</a> BOKU - University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences Vienna, IHG astrid.schmidt-kloiber@boku.ac.at principalInvestigator The dataset needs to be requested from dataset creator with specific conditions of use. restricted eng biota environment inlandWaters location -28.00 70.00 27.00 75.00 1793-01-01T00:00:00 2015-12-31T00:00:00 http:// dataset Conformity_001 INSPIRE COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1089/2010 of 23 November 2010 implementing Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards interoperability of spatial data sets and services 2010-12-08 publication See the referenced specification - The underlying taxalist was checked by the freshwaterecology.info Trichoptera experts and currently holds 1708 species (including sub-species). - Distribution data were in a first step quality controlled through GIS routines. In a second step the occurrence records were quality checked by experts, namely Hans Malicky and Wolfram Graf. - To avoid quality issues regarding the identification of larvae, the focus of the dataset is on adult data. - In cases of recent differentiations to sub-species older data may contain ambiguous species.
