All invasive non native species records held by WWBIC for the West Wales region.Purpose
These records have been collated from a wide variety of sources both recent and historical. They are provided as a distinct dataset to allow full public access to distribution data of INNS in West Wales.Sampling Description
Quality Control
Data are of a wide geographic and temporal range and have been collated from a very varied range of sources. Due to variations in recording effort data should not be regarded as a comprehensive geographic or taxonomic distribution of INNS in West Wales. Data has been extracted directly from Recorder 6. Data was internally validated by a WWBIC member of staff before import into Recorder 6 although WWBIC cannot guarantee the accuracy of every record.Method steps
- Data have been collated from a wide range of direct observation sources. Method and spatial accuracy of records vary by individual recorder.
Taxonomic Coverages
Geographic Coverages
West Wales (Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire). Geographical coverage is incomplete, there are large areas of West Wales with very little recorder activity and therefor this should not be taken as a definitive map of INNS in the region.
