| Research Abstract |
We constructed new database system for biodiversity This system is based on our proposed philosophy that the unit for registration should be individuals. The unit of registration in the system is an individual organism, called an object. To register an object, and information on its traits, and to give the object a unique numerical code for later identification, a server computer is used. At registration, the object is unclassified, meaning that no subjective decision is made as to species or taxa, and no natural classification scheme is assumed. Using search keys, a search function allows registered objects to be retrieved based on morphological, phylogenetic, ecological and genetic traits, as well as on scientific, taxonomic, and common names. In general, the system includes not only machinery necessary for describing biodiversity, but also for extracting information pertaining to it. For testing the database we registered individual data for bamle bees.
