Distribution is recorded to the level of country or, in some instances, to a sub-country level of Biological Recording Unit (BRU). This recognises areas to the regional/state level of larger countries, as well as larger islands of particular biological importance. If distribution data are not complete, or not known to be complete, this is indicated. Global distribution maps are available for each taxon.
