ARC-PPRI: Chalcidoidea Collection (1900-2010)

Citation

Kelly J, Ranwashe F (2018). ARC-PPRI: Chalcidoidea Collection (1900-2010). Version 1.3. South African National Biodiversity Institute. Occurrence dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/xdbrse accessed via GBIF.org on 2023-12-04.

Description

The Chalcidoidea database has been compiled over the past decade and contains entries from the holdings of all 18 families of this superfamily in the ARC National Collection of Insects (NCI), Pretoria. This work formed the last stage needed to complete the entering of historical data, which will result in a database with approximately 12 000 records. The activities of the proposed project were three-fold: capturing of new records pertaining to the families Encyrtidae and Aphelinidae; the verification of previously digitized entries; and the data cleaning of all entries. All database entries contain invaluable information of hosts, host plants and distribution of Afrotropical Chalcidoidea with the emphasis on groups of agricultural importance.
